Geriatric & Dementia Care Nurse Pair — Private Family, Jeddah

A private family in Jeddah has asked Medical Staff Talent to introduce a pair of UK & European-trained Geriatric & Dementia Care Nurses. The family’s grandmother is living with advancing dementia and wants to remain at home with her family.

The family always employs two nurses so that care never depends on one person. The two permanent nurses alternate daily 8-hour shifts, with on-call cover overnight. The rhythm follows the family rather than a rota: a six-day week, with availability at any hour when needed.

The Mandate

• Dementia care with consistent routines, nutrition and comfort.
• Medication management and monitoring of other long-term conditions.
• Working with the family physician and visiting specialists.
• Supporting family members and staff through changes in her needs.
• Complete confidentiality, under a strict non-disclosure agreement.

Requirements

• Registered nurse trained in the UK or Europe, with substantial experience in older-adult and dementia care.
• At least 7 years of post-registration experience.
• Comfortable working as one of two nurses alternating 8- or 12-hour shifts, with careful handovers.
• Experience in memory services or community care is valued.
• Fluent English and a calm, courteous manner.
• Availability to begin within six weeks of offer.
• Willingness to relocate alone to a live-in, single-status appointment, and to travel worldwide with the family at short notice.
• Arabic language skills are a strong advantage.

Package

• From €5,000 a month.
• Medical insurance is covered; professional indemnity insurance is not included.
• Flights and travel are always paid for by the family.
• The salary is agreed directly between the family and the clinician; each clinician should take advice from their own tax adviser on whether the income is taxable in their circumstances.
• Private accommodation in the residence, provided free.
• Permanent role with annual leave, under a contract renewed yearly with the family.

Scope of Engagement

Medical Staff Talent introduces and verifies clinicians. The engagement is contracted directly between the family and the clinician, and all local arrangements (visa, licensed entity, coordination with local clinics) remain with the family’s own office and advisers.
