People in need of care with dementia-related impairments, mental illnesses or intellectual disabilities usually have a significant general need for supervision and care. The legal regulation is intended to create the financial basis for hiring additional staff in fully inpatient care facilities. For many job seekers, this opens up a new opportunity to find a job that is subject to social security contributions.

The aim of the course is to determine your suitability for a professional activity in this area, as well as to qualify as a carer in nursing homes within the framework of the guideline in accordance with Section 87 b Paragraph 3 SGB XI.
