Caregiving for an 87-year-old senior (65 kg, 160 cm) who is mentally very alert and clearly oriented. The lady primarily moves around her home in a wheelchair but can also walk with the help of a walker.

Job responsibilities primarily involve household management, which includes cooking, shopping, laundry, and maintaining cleanliness in the house.

For a position in the Saalekreis district, a caregiver is sought for an 87-year-old gentleman (180 cm, 80 kg) who suffers from incontinence and age-related weakness. Following a stroke in 2023, he uses a wheelchair but can take a few steps with assistance – he requires support when walking, standing up, and transferring, but lifting is not necessary.
