What this service does for you

Trained health aides visit older or sick people at home to help them with daily tasks, such as washing, eating, or moving around. This support mainly helps to prevent informal caregivers from becoming exhausted, for example after a family member has a stroke, by giving them regular breaks. The price depends on the income and assets of the person receiving care, and part of it can be paid back through supplementary benefits. Currently, there is a discount of CHF 4 per hour and three free trial hours. You can apply by phone on weekday mornings.
