Travelling Nurse

Private Travelling Nurse/Travelling Carer job (M/F) in Geneva, Switzerland & Paris, France

Geneva

Job Description

An international private principal is seeking an experienced, highly discreet and adaptable Private Travelling Nurse / Personal Healthcare Companion to provide dedicated health-related assistance and personal support across multiple international residences and travel destinations.

This is a unique opportunity for a healthcare professional or experienced senior carer accustomed to delivering exceptional standards of personal care within demanding private environments.

The position is open to two distinct professional profiles:

  • Registered Nurse: A qualified nursing professional with clinical experience, capable of providing health monitoring, first-line medical assistance, medication oversight and coordination with treating physicians.
  • Senior Healthcare Companion: An experienced caregiver with a strong background in elderly care, rehabilitation, mobility assistance and emergency first aid. Formal nursing qualifications are desirable but not mandatory.

The principal leads an active and largely independent lifestyle, with a regular programme of international travel and social engagements. The successful candidate will therefore provide primarily preventative healthcare support, discreet physical assistance and continuity of care, adapting their involvement to the principal’s evolving requirements.

The ideal candidate will combine sound healthcare knowledge with excellent social awareness, professionalism and the ability to integrate naturally into an established private household team.

  • Maintain an organised and confidential medical record containing relevant health information, medication details, allergies and emergency contacts.

Professional Conduct & Household Integration
