Course Content

This course deals with topics such as:

informal communication with patients and relatives (admission, counseling, etc.)

professional communication with colleagues and doctors (handover, prescriptions, expert opinions, care planning and documentation, etc.)

Small courses (6-12 participants) are formed for each professional group.

The course concludes with the telc Deutsch B1/B2 Pflege exam, a language test tailored to the nursing professions. As a participant, you will be intensively prepared for this in the language course. This exam qualifies you for professional recognition as a nursing professional.
Alternatively, as part of the accreditation process, it is possible to complete the course with the specialized language exam in nursing (Fachsprachenprüfung FSP Pflege). This exam format is also covered in detail during the course.

Our Teaching Concept

Our face-to-face courses for the nursing professions are based on a comprehensive curriculum, which we have repeatedly adapted over the years to meet the current challenges of the nursing profession. We use specially developed teaching materials to ensure individual and targeted learning.

The courses conclude with the language exams required for professional recognition (telc Deutsch B1/B2 Pflege) or the specialized language exam (Fachsprachenprüfung FSP), for which you will receive intensive preparation.

I did the B1/B2 German course (for nursing professions) at the MASK Center. The teachers and lecturers are very helpful and very competent. My questions were answered very well and we were very well prepared for the exam. I am happy to recommend the school! Best regards
