Prywatna Opieka

What Prywatna Opieka does

Prywatna Opieka Ludzi Starszych i Chorych (operating as Prywatna Opieka and EURO-PARTNER) is a privately-held Polish care services firm founded in January 2007 and headquartered in Lublin, Poland. The company operates two complementary service lines: in-home elderly and sick care delivery in Poland and a caregiver placement business connecting Polish nurses, paramedics, physiotherapists, and unqualified care workers with families in Germany and Austria. Operations span Germany, Austria, and Poland, supported by a Lublin branch and sales representatives distributed nationwide. The company serves individual Polish families seeking professional in-home care for elderly or chronically ill relatives, and Polish care professionals seeking verified legal employment abroad.

The Polish care offering is split into two service variants: Opieka Co Dzienna (scheduled daily visits, priced hourly) and Opieka 24-godzinna (round-the-clock live-in care, priced monthly). The placement service is delivered via a candidate database matched against verified job openings sourced through direct employer relationships in Germany and Austria. There is no proprietary technology platform; the business is service-based and relationship-driven, supported by a basic two-subdomain website (opieka.prywatna-opieka.pl for care services, praca.prywatna-opieka.pl for employment abroad). The source data explicitly characterizes the core technology as 'Not applicable - service-based business.'

Prywatna Opieka earns revenue through professional services fees for both care delivery in Poland and caregiver placement abroad. Pricing is individualized based on the care recipient's location, hours of work, specific duties performed, and patient condition. Caregivers are engaged either under umowa-zlecenie (Polish civil law contracts) or through their own działalność gospodarcza (self-employment businesses). The company employs approximately 13 people, is privately held with no disclosed external investment, and runs on a sales-led go-to-market model using direct outreach, phone, email, and the company website.

Emerging players

• Opiekunka.info: Polish online platform connecting families with caregivers for in-home elderly care. Comparable as an emerging digitally-enabled competitor targeting the same Polish family-customer segment Prywatna Opieka serves.

Regional players

• Veritas Pflege: German private in-home care agency providing 24-hour care and household support for elderly clients. Comparable as a regional in-home care operator with business model overlap, though focused exclusively on the German market.

Broad incumbents

• Home Instead Senior Care: International home care franchise with Polish and German operations providing non-medical in-home care for seniors. Overlaps directly with Prywatna Opieka's care services and brings significantly more capital, brand recognition, and operational tooling.
• Korian: Europe's largest senior care and assisted living operator, headquartered in France, with home care services across multiple countries including Germany and Poland-adjacent markets. Broad incumbent competing across the same elder care value chain.
• MEDIAN Kliniken: German healthcare provider operating rehabilitation clinics and care facilities with home care and elderly services. Comparable as a German-based elder care provider competing for the same family customer segment.
• Orpea: Major European senior care group offering nursing homes, assisted living, and home care services across France, Germany, Austria, and Central Europe. Comparable as a senior care operator with cross-border DACH presence.

Direct peers

• Promedica: Polish private in-home elderly care provider offering 24-hour live-in and daily care services in Poland. Closely overlaps with Prywatna Opieka's domestic care service line and competes for the same Lublin-region and nationwide customer base.
• Promedica24: Polish-founded company placing Polish caregivers in Germany, the UK, and other Western European countries. Operates essentially the same dual model — cross-border caregiver placement and domestic in-home care — making it the most directly comparable peer.
