Was macht ein/e FaBe genau?
What exactly does an apprentice do?
Federal VET Diploma care specialists accompany and care for children, young people, the disabled or the elderly in everyday life and in a wide variety of situations. In doing so, they promote the independence of the person being cared for as far as possible and support them according to the situation. The tasks of a care specialist include personal hygiene, dressing and undressing, (co-)preparing or providing food and drink, shopping, going for walks or playing, always as a supportive measure for and with the person being cared for. Creative activities such as handicrafts, singing, painting or making music are also part of the day-to-day work of care professionals, as is intensive, situation- and age-appropriate communication. A Federal VET Diploma care specialist therefore ensures a varied, interesting and structured daily routine for children, the elderly or disabled who are dependent on outside help.
