Ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, ob ein Bachelor in Pflege auch wirklich für mich geeignet ist. Wie finde ich das heraus?
I'm not quite sure whether a Bachelor's degree in nursing is really suitable for me. How can I find out?
It is not always easy to decide on the right course of study or the right apprenticeship from the wealth of offers. This decision takes time and sufficient knowledge about the individual professions, their activities, tasks and career prospects. Take this time and do your research. Ask some of the Universities of Applied Sciences that offer a Bachelor's in Nursing for documents about the course and have them sent to you by email (via our contact form). In this way, you can also gather information on alternative training courses, such as a Bachelor's degree in occupational therapy, nutritional counseling, physiotherapy or midwifery, if these interest you. Equipped with all this knowledge, you may not be able to make a definitive choice, but you can probably rule out some training courses. It is also always a good idea to apply for an internship in the healthcare sector during your vacation and ask about the possibility of accompanying a UAS nursing specialist and getting to know their everyday working life.
To work in nursing, you should be very resilient, have great empathy and extensive self and social skills. You should have good observation and communication skills, be sociable, have a great sense of responsibility and be able to act with an open mind. You are expected to have a sound knowledge of biology and the natural sciences, be interested in an academic career and be able to work diligently even before studying for a Bachelor's degree in Nursing. You should be aware that people with a bachelor's degree in nursing are not exclusively responsible for patient care, but are primarily responsible for administrative tasks and managing teams. Therefore, please inform yourself sufficiently about the activities of nursing graduates.
