I nurse the way I believe it should be done

My name is Manuela Dratschew. I am a German state-registered geriatric nurse working on Mallorca. My approach is shaped by competence and experience, but just as much by humanity, compassion and warmth.

As a nurse in Germany I had to learn that there is barely time for a proper conversation with a resident. As a nursing service manager I had to learn that financial interests often matter more than people do.

On Mallorca, as a self-employed freelance nurse, I can finally work the way my head and my heart tell me to: with the highest professional standards, with empathy, and without the clock running.

“You can only nurse well with your heart.” Manuela Dratschew

How an enquiry works

No paperwork battle, no call centre. You write to me, and then speak directly to the person who will be doing the nursing.

  1. You get in touch

    By WhatsApp, phone, e-mail or through the form. Tell me briefly what it is about: the dates, where on the island, and what kind of support is needed.

  2. We work out what is needed

    Together we go through what care is required, how often and for how long. You will hear openly what I can take on, and what I cannot.

  3. The care starts

    We agree fixed times and I come to you: to the hotel, the apartment, the finca or your home. I remain your contact throughout.

Die liebe Manuela.. Manuela hat meine Mutter während knapp 2 Wochen in einem Hotel 2x täglich gepflegt (Grundpflege). Nach einer einmaligen Einführung wusste Manuela gleich was zutun ist. Manuela war immer pünktlich, herzlich, verständnisvoll unf macht ihre Arbeit mit wirklich viel Liebe. Meine Mutter hat sich sehr wohl gefühlt und würde sich bei einem erneuten Aufenthalt wieder für Manuela entscheiden. Danke Manuela.

TranslationDear Manuela. She cared for my mother twice a day for almost two weeks in a hotel. After a single briefing she knew exactly what to do. She was always punctual, warm and understanding, and does her work with a great deal of love. My mother felt very comfortable and would choose Manuela again on another stay. Thank you, Manuela.

Wir waren eine Woche mit unserer Mutter auf Mallorca in den Ferien und benötigten am Morgen Hilfe bei dem Start in den Tag (Körperpflege, Duschen, Ankleiden). Manuela Dratschew hat von Beginn an eine gute Beziehung zu unserer Mutter aufgebaut und ging auf Ihre Wünsche bei der Pflege gut ein. Die Abwicklung war vom ersten Kontakt vorm Urlaubsantritt (Abklärung des Bedarfs, Kosten) bis zum letzten Urlaubstag tadellos, pünktlich und zuverlässig. Wir werden beim nächsten Urlaub sicher wieder gerne auf Frau Dratschew zurückgreifen.

TranslationWe spent a week on Mallorca with our mother and needed help getting her started in the morning — washing, showering, dressing. Manuela Dratschew built a good relationship with our mother from the start and responded well to her wishes. Everything, from the first contact before the trip through to the last day, was faultless, punctual and reliable. We will gladly turn to Ms Dratschew again on our next holiday.
