Nursing is one of the most beautiful arts

Unfortunately, this is a symptom of our times and a bad signal for the cornerstones of nursing, but it clearly shows that the consequences of these behaviours have by and large not been understood by management for many years at the expense of the nursing image. If you scratch the surface, the question quickly arises as to what has happened to the professional pride of nursing staff. After all, they make a socially indispensable contribution to health, quality of life and ultimately the success of our society. Why don't carers confidently represent this fact?

Evidence-based care and healthcare as an opportunity

The current staffing situation is a major challenge in view of the expected need for qualified specialists. Medical, therapeutic and nursing services should be provided effectively, expediently and economically at the same time.

Graduates of a nursing degree programme are the bridge between doctors and nursing staff. The Bachelor's degree provides the necessary knowledge to create evidence-based nursing concepts and standards to optimise nursing processes. The additional knowledge, for example in clinical assessment or scientific work, creates the opportunity to provide patients with optimal care and to take on a co-decisive role in the interprofessional team. The nursing process requires a broad perspective in order to be able to accompany a patient, for example with a leg injury, from admission to hospital through rehabilitation to their return to work.

What makes training at Bethesda Hospital special

In order to tackle the problem of the loss of attractiveness of the nursing profession at its roots, Bethesda Hospital has long been aware that new training conditions need to be created for the young, individualised generation. As quality and continuity are the most important attributes in training, the nursing training structure has been adapted accordingly. Vocational trainers (qualified nursing staff with additional training) are active as the Nursing Education Department. This works as a partially agile and self-organised team. Vocational trainers assume responsibility during the practical training of apprentices and students in nursing, plan their assignments independently and have generous decision-making freedom.

This large-scale reorganisation pursues the ambitious goal of continuously offering practical support days for learners and students. This is closely meshed and goal-orientated. As a result, they receive constructive feedback and are individually supported in their learning goals. There is always a vocational trainer on site to reflect on special, unplanned learning situations together with the learner or student. The Education/Nursing department also offers additional learning opportunities such as the so-called education spots. In these, apprentices and students from different training levels work together on a project, the results of which are presented at an event for the entire hospital. The targeted measures ensure a very high quality of training and support those starting their careers in their learning objectives until they complete their training.

We support people who are interested and enthusiastic about learning

Between 70 and 80 people are currently being trained in 15 different professions at Bethesda Hospital. The variety of medical specialities, the close cooperation with the different areas in the hospital as well as the affiliated doctors and cooperation partners, offer exciting and varied fields of learning and the best conditions for attractive training and further education.
