The Embassy of India welcomes the launch of a new tender by The Ministry of Senior Citizens, Denmark for an international recruitment and implementation partner to support bilateral cooperation with the Indian State of Kerala.

The initiative aims to facilitate the ethical and structured recruitment, language training, and reskilling of qualified care and healthcare professionals for employment in Danish municipalities and the Danish regional authorities. It concerns recruitment to the following job categories:

Social and Healthcare Helpers: A Social and Healthcare Helper works to provide practical assistance and care to people who need support in their daily lives – for example, the elderly or individuals with disabilities. They assist with personal care such as bathing, dressing, as well as practical tasks such as cooking and cleaning. The helper is often the one who has daily contact and ensures that the citizen is well.

Social and Healthcare Assistants: A Social and Healthcare Assistant has more education and responsibility than a helper. They can administer medication, perform more advanced care, and work closely with nurses and doctors. The assistant assesses the citizen's health, plans the care, and coordinates efforts to ensure that the citizen receives appropriate support, both physically and mentally.

Nurses: A nurse is a person who is trained to perform, lead, and develop nursing, which involves assisting the sick and healthy in promoting or regaining health. This is done by using knowledge of clinical, therapeutic, and relational aspects of healthcare, and nurses work both in hospitals and in primary healthcare.
