The costs for your personal carer depend on the following factors :
-
Number of people requiring care or support in the household
-
the level of care
-
Care requirements - this includes the type and extent of the activities to be performed as well as the clinical picture
-
Qualification level , professional experience and language skills of the desired carer
-
Funding entitlements (depending on net income, care level and dependent relatives)
The daily rate starts at EUR 60 including the social security contributions for the carers, but excluding travel costs, which are billed after the transport invoice has been submitted. To provide you with a transparent basis, we have listed the surcharges that can increase the daily rate. The daily rate also changes if the requirements for the 24-hour carer increase, for example if a certain level of professional experience or language skills are required. Below you will find a calculation example for easier understanding.

The amount of the care allowance depends on the care required . There are seven levels. A care requirement of more than 65 hours per month is required. The number of hours of monthly care required is determined as part of an assessment by a doctor or a nursing professional.
