I need some information about nursing in another country and I was interested in Germany because my son lives there.

The questions are:

educational background and experiences?

How is the treatment of nurses?

Nursing issues?

educational Requirements?

Thank you

Hi nurseneris

I'm a German nurse, but currently residing in Switzerland. I have passed NCLEX-RN in 2002 and have found an employer in Florida, who petitioned for a greencard on my behalf. At this time, I'm waiting for the USCIS processing being finished.

I've posted this in another thread before. There is some more information from other nurses in the same thread. Maybe it is of some help to you:

Are you asking for my educational background and experiences or in general?

I've provided some information concerning the treatment of nurses in Germany in a previous post I mentioned above.

Could you be a little bit more specific about nursing issues? I'm not sure how to answer that question...

Educational requirements: you need at least finish 10 years of school (primary/secondary) before starting an apprenticeship to become a nurse in Germany. Nursing schools and hospitals are affiliated, students get a lot of practical experience that way. They don't pay for their education, but get paid an equivalent of up to 600 Dollars a month. Within 3 years nurses get at least 2100 hours of theoretical and 2500 hours of practical instruction.

The following is a link to a German Nurses Association called DBfK. The content isn't really up to date regarding the hours of theoretical/practical instruction during the apprenticeship, but you still get some good info on German nursing in general.

Hope this is helpful to you!

Thank you for all the information. My dream is to move to Florida one day.
