Tips and decision-making aids for training in care law

Professionals working in the nursing or therapeutic field (e.g. nurses, midwives, physiotherapists) or social workers are faced with new and more complex issues and broader areas of responsibility every day in their professional activities. The requirements are constantly increasing and changing. This also affects the legal aspects. Correct action and correct legal decisions sometimes have to be made in the blink of an eye. Comprehensive and up-to-date knowledge of health and care law gives professionals in the nursing, social and therapeutic sectors a sense of security, which they also convey to all those affected. Patients and relatives feel that they are in good hands, authorities and health insurers recognize a competent counterpart, employees and specialists appreciate the know-how and feel secure in their cooperation.

Under the umbrella term "health and care law", a wide variety of legal principles are taught in courses and continuing education programs at technical colleges and universities of applied sciences. In many cases, these also touch on inheritance law, adult and child protection law, family law and social law.

Prospective students benefit from free and non-binding information documents via e-mail on this education portal and can also take advantage of numerous other services.
