Rising Demand for Eldercare at Home
With more elderly choosing to age in place, the need for caregivers with healthcare skills is increasing rapidly — and this demand will only continue to grow.
As Singapore’s eldercare needs grow, families are no longer looking for just domestic help — they are looking for caregivers they can trust. ShifaCare supports maid agencies with a strong pipeline of healthcare-trained foreign domestic workers who are prepared specifically for eldercare, home care, and daily caregiving support. We help agencies offer a higher-value solution to families while positioning ShifaCare as a trusted leader in healthcare-trained FDW supply.
Singapore is entering a new phase of ageing, where families are no longer satisfied with basic domestic help. The expectations have changed — they are actively seeking caregivers who can support mobility, monitor health, and manage daily care safely at home.
Yet, many agencies are still offering the same traditional placement model, leaving a growing gap between what families need and what is available in the market.
With more elderly choosing to age in place, the need for caregivers with healthcare skills is increasing rapidly — and this demand will only continue to grow.
Today’s clients are more informed and are actively asking for helpers who can handle caregiving responsibilities, not just household tasks.
Offering standard FDWs is no longer enough. Agencies that can provide healthcare-trained caregivers will stand out, command higher value, and build stronger client trust.
Despite rising demand, there is still a shortage of properly trained caregivers in the FDW space — creating a strong opportunity for agencies to lead, not follow.
We equip agencies with a new generation of foreign domestic workers who are not only ready for household responsibilities, but trained to support real caregiving needs. This allows you to offer a differentiated, higher-value solution that meets the expectations of modern families.
Our FDWs undergo structured training in essential caregiving skills, including mobility support, feeding assistance, hygiene care, and basic health monitoring — preparing them for real home-based care needs.
Stand out from competitors by offering healthcare-trained caregivers instead of standard domestic helpers, allowing you to position your services at a higher level and build stronger client trust.
Training is practical and scenario-based, ensuring FDWs can confidently manage day-to-day caregiving challenges in a home environment from the moment they are deployed.
Families gain peace of mind knowing their caregiver is trained to handle eldercare needs safely and competently — making your agency the preferred choice.
