Elderly caregivers in Singapore differ from home nursing — caregivers handle personal care and companionship (bathing, dressing, feeding, supervision), not clinical tasks. For foreign caregivers, MOM EA licensing applies (same framework as maid arrangements). Training matters: ADA Singapore credentials for dementia care, WSQ Higher Certificate in Eldercare, and current CPR/first-aid are the baseline quality signals.

No — same MOM rules as maids apply. Foreign caregivers must be deployed through MOM-licensed Employment Agencies. Direct hire is illegal and carries S\$5,000+ fines plus 2-year hiring ban. Singaporean or PR caregivers can be hired directly but are rarer in the market.
Hourly (general care): S\$18-30/hour. Dementia specialist hourly: S\$25-45. Day-only caregiver: S\$2,000-3,500/month. Stay-in: S\$2,800-4,500/month. Specialised (post-stroke, dementia): S\$3,500-6,000/month. Agency + levy for foreign hires: S\$1,500-3,500 + S\$60-300/month.
Look for ADA Singapore (Alzheimer's Disease Association) training, WSQ Higher Certificate in Eldercare with dementia specialisation, or equivalent recognised certifications. Generic caregivers without dementia-specific training struggle with behavioural changes (sundowning, aggression, wandering) and fall into managing their own stress rather than the patient's.
Ask for 2-3 recent family references willing to be contacted. Reference calls reveal reliability, temperament under stress, follow-through on care plans, and how they handled difficult days. An experienced caregiver with Singapore track record will have contactable references; those who refuse are signalling something.
Match caregiver experience to conditions. Someone experienced with Parkinson's care differs from stroke recovery or palliative care specialists. Dementia, post-stroke, and general ageing-in-place have different skill demands. Agency should be able to match based on your parent's specific conditions — generic matching without specialisation produces worse outcomes.
