UAE Care Employers
Hire Filipino Caregivers for UAE Home Care and Elderly Care
Most home care demand in the UAE is elderly care, from families keeping ageing parents at home to dementia support and post-operative recovery after early discharge. We staff licensed home healthcare agencies and care facilities with Filipino caregivers recruited directly from the Philippines, screened for exactly that work, with visas, paperwork, and Philippine clearances handled through to arrival.

The care your clients actually need
Elderly daily living support, mobility and falls prevention, dementia care, medication reminders, post-operative recovery at home, and long-term condition support, delivered live-in or visiting. A caregiver who suits a recovering surgical patient is not automatically right for advanced dementia. Every profile we send 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.
Nursing aides and nursing assistants are sourced alongside caregivers in the same process. UAE care homes and home nursing teams use them to support qualified nurses with daily patient care. We screen them the same way, with TESDA certification confirmed and hands-on care experience stated on every profile.
Who we work with
We staff licensed home healthcare agencies and care facilities. We do not place caregivers directly with families. If you are a family arranging care for a relative, you should go through a licensed home care provider in your Emirate, which is who we staff.
For agencies, we also source home care nurses (the licensed nurses within home nursing teams) and home visit physiotherapists, from one brief and one point of contact.
Home care nursing is a growing category. As of July 2026, UAE employers hold live DMW-approved job orders for more than 250 Filipino caregivers and care workers, and employers across the three markets we serve hold more than 2,000 caregiver and care worker roles.
Home care assistants
Home care assistants, the caregivers and care workers who deliver daily support in the home, are the main role on a UAE home care roster. We screen them for the care types your clients need, including elderly and dementia care, post-operative recovery, and long-term condition support, and state whether each has worked live-in or visiting.
Home care staffing turns over faster than hospital staffing, and our model is built for that. We run repeat briefs, hold screened candidates against your standing requirements, and replace departures quickly, so your client rosters stay covered.
Care assistants hold a TESDA National Certificate in Caregiving (NC II), verified directly with TESDA, and are not individually licensed the way nurses are. Any nurses on the team follow the standard UAE nursing pathway for your Emirate.

Most UAE home care demand sits in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. For the elderly care picture in those two Emirates, see our guide to Filipino elderly care in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
How UAE home care staffing is regulated
Home healthcare providers are licensed by the authority of their Emirate. That is DHA in Dubai, DOH in Abu Dhabi, and MOH UAE in the Northern Emirates. Your agency holds the licence and care staff work under it. Caregivers are not individually licensed the way nurses are. That makes screening central, so we place more weight on references, care records, and English than for licensed clinical roles.
How free replacement works for home care
A replacement is screened exactly as a first hire is, with TESDA certification confirmed, references checked, and English assessed, drawn from the screened candidates we hold against your standing requirements or from new sourcing.
It follows the same process as your first hires, so the standard does not drop.
Replacement is free within the first three months.
