level of care
German term
Pflegebedürftigkeitsgrad
Zum Tätigkeitsbereich von Frau X als Pflegehelferin gehört:
- Körperpflege bei Bewohner/innen aller Pflegebedürftigkeitsgrade
- Hilfe beim Duschen und Baden
- Hilfe beim Aufstehen, An- und Auskleiden
- Betten und Umbetten der Bewohner/innen

I imagine this must be something like "care requirement categories", but maybe there's a specific term in medical parlance for this.
