With the professional alignment course INGA Pflege, the disparities with the German training that have been determined are balanced out in a targeted way. The content builds upon the skills that the international nurses have already acquired. During the programme, the international nurses get to know professional practice in German healthcare and nursing facilities. This practical deployment takes place under the direction of the recruiting facility. This means that their expertise and professional integration is made possible at an early stage. The nurses recruited get to know their new workplace and team during the alignment course. This ensures a sustainable recruitment process and good prospects of the nurses remaining in their jobs in Germany.
