To be completely honest, I was in a desperate search for a FDW to take care of both my elderly parents. I sent out countless requests online without even knowing if they would be answered. But then Keith came into the picture, and let me tell you, his dedication and passion towards his work were truly remarkable. He didn't let the fact that it was during the Chinese New Year period stop him from assisting me. Keith wasted no time in providing me with immediate assistance and addressing all of my queries in a prompt manner. It was incredible how quickly things were finalized! The FDW we engaged from Helper Express truly left a lasting impression on me. She was like a guardian angel sent from above and words simply cannot express how grateful I am to Keith and Brelly. The entire transaction, from start to finish, was an absolute pleasure.

First time hiring helper to look after my mum, who has been hospitalised. The team setup a group chat quite instantly and shared shortlisted profiles that are based off our criteria and needs. Brelly setup a video call interview the very next day with the profiles we selected. Throughout the process Brelly also gave very detailed explanation and breakdown of their pricing. The paperwork processing was pretty fast we got everything done/approved within 1.5 weeks (over cny period) and the helper flew in 3 weeks later after our initial contact with the agency (we could get her in as early as 2 weeks but we didn’t want to rush). Just fetched our helper today and hopefully this will workout well. So all in all they are really fast and efficient, our initial contact with them was on 31/1/24 and our helper joined our family on 26/2/24! Thank you for helping to make hiring a helper a breeze during such difficult times.

Things to Know Before Hiring a Maid To Take Care of Your Elderly

Before welcoming a part-time maid into your home to care for an elderly family member, several key considerations must be addressed to ensure a safe, legal, and mutually beneficial arrangement.

1. Legal Requirements and Regulations

In Singapore, hiring a domestic helper for elderly care involves adhering to strict legal guidelines. These include securing a Work Permit, ensuring the provision of medical insurance, and compliance with Ministry of Manpower (MOM) regulations. Familiarising yourself with and following these rules is non-negotiable to ensure legality and protection for both parties.

2. Trustworthiness and Reliability

The safety and well-being of your elderly loved one are paramount. Conducting detailed background checks and verifying references are essential steps. Opting for a reputable maid agency such as Helper Express that thoroughly vet its candidates can add an extra layer of security and peace of mind.

3. Elderly Care Experience and Qualifications

A maid’s prior experience and training in elderly care are invaluable. It’s important to discuss your specific needs with potential candidates to gauge their suitability and competence in providing the necessary level of care.

4. Communication and Language Skills

Clear communication is essential for effective elderly care. The maid’s ability to understand and follow instructions, as well as to communicate effectively with the elderly individual and their family, is crucial. This ensures not only the fulfilment of care tasks but also contributes to the overall comfort and emotional well-being of the elderly person.

5. Compatibility and Bonding

The personal chemistry between the maid and the elderly person cannot be overlooked. A trial interaction can help assess whether a positive, nurturing relationship is likely to develop, which is critical for a harmonious caregiving environment. Compatibility leads to a more enjoyable and fulfilling experience for the elderly, making it a vital factor in the selection process.

Frequently Asked Questions About Maid for Elderly Care in Singapore

How does an elderly care maid differ from general maids?

Elderly care maids undergo specific training to meet the unique needs of elderly individuals, prioritising their comfort, safety, and overall well-being. Their specialised knowledge enables them to address age-related challenges, including mobility issues and conditions like dementia. In contrast, general maids may lack the same level of expertise in elderly care and may focus on broader household tasks. Elderly care helpers offer personalised attention, companionship, and emotional support, creating a nurturing environment that promotes the happiness and contentment of your elderly loved ones. Their dedication to enhancing the quality of life for seniors sets them apart, making them a vital asset in providing compassionate and comprehensive care.

Can a maid take care of the elderly?

While maids may have some caregiving skills, they may not have the specialised skills and knowledge required to provide comprehensive care for the elderly. Caring for elderly individuals often involves dealing with intricate and specific needs, including managing medical conditions, addressing mobility limitations, and providing emotional support. In contrast, professional elderly care maids undergo specific training tailored to address these distinct requirements effectively. Thus, it is advisable to rely on experienced and skilled elderly care helpers rather than general maids when entrusting the care of seniors. These specialised caregivers are better equipped to meet the unique challenges associated with elderly care, ensuring a higher quality of life for your elderly loved ones.
