Saudi Care Employers
Filipino Caregivers for Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia hires care staff through licensed staffing and home care companies that hold the contracts and sponsor the visas. We supply those companies with Filipino caregivers recruited directly from the Philippines, screened for the care their contracts cover, with visas, paperwork, and clearances handled through to arrival.

As of July 2026, Saudi employers hold live DMW-approved job orders for more than 430 Filipino caregivers and care workers.
Source: DMW approved job orders. Demand runs through licensed staffing and home care companies contracting with facilities and households.
The care Saudi companies contract for
Elderly daily living support, mobility and falls prevention, dementia care, medication reminders, and post-operative recovery at home, live-in or visiting. Staffing companies tend to run mixed contracts across several clients at once, so we screen for breadth of care experience as well as depth. Every profile states the care types worked, the client histories behind them, and prior overseas experience where it exists.
Filipino caregivers hold a TESDA National Certificate in Caregiving (NC II), the Philippine national caregiving qualification, verified directly with TESDA, with references checked and English assessed by us.
We also recruit nursing aides and nursing assistants under this caregiver pipeline. Saudi staffing companies use them to extend a nurse's reach across contracts, and every candidate is vetted on TESDA credentials and prior nursing-support experience, with references confirmed before you interview.
Who hires, and how it is funded
We staff licensed staffing and home care companies. The company holds the contracts, is the direct employer, and sponsors the visa for every caregiver placed. Recruitment is employer-funded end to end; the candidate is never charged a placement fee or any equivalent at any stage, in line with Philippine law.
For companies running mixed teams, we also source the licensed nurses within home nursing services and home visit physiotherapists, one brief, one point of contact.
Clinical versus non-clinical care roles
The line that matters in Saudi Arabia is clinical versus non-clinical. Non-clinical care work does not route through the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCFHS); the company holds the licensing and care staff work under it. Where a role carries clinical duties, that candidate routes through SCFHS classification and DataFlow, the same pathway we run for nurses. We confirm which side your role sits on before sourcing, so the registration path and timeline are clear from the start.

Saudi Caregiver Employer Questions
- How do Saudi employers hire Filipino caregivers?
- Through licensed staffing and home care companies, which hold the contracts with facilities and families and act as the direct employer and visa sponsor. We recruit into those companies, not to candidates directly. Recruitment is employer-funded and the candidate is never charged at any stage.
- Do Filipino caregivers in Saudi Arabia need SCFHS classification?
- Only where the role is clinical. Non-clinical care work, daily living support, mobility help, companionship, and dementia support, does not route through the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCFHS). Where a post carries clinical duties, that candidate is prepared for SCFHS classification and DataFlow the same way a nurse is. We confirm which side your role sits on at brief stage.
- What qualifications do your Saudi caregivers hold?
- A TESDA National Certificate in Caregiving (NC II), the Philippine national caregiving qualification, verified directly with TESDA. Many also have prior overseas care experience in Hong Kong, Singapore, or the region, stated on the profile with references checked.
- How quickly can care staff arrive in Saudi Arabia?
- Confirmed brief to shortlist is typically 3 to 5 weeks, and brief to arrival around 3 to 4 months. Non-clinical care is often quicker than clinical roles because there is no licensing examination stage. For ongoing demand we run rolling briefs and replace free within the first three months.
