Health professional title - Permission
Performance specification
Would you like to receive information on the granting of licences to use the professional title in the so-called health professions? In addition to the classic nursing professions and obstetrics, these also include the therapeutic professions (e.g.: masseurs and medical bath attendants or physiotherapists) as well as the assistant professions (e.g.: medical-technical assistants).
In this context, we inform you about:
- the respective federal and provincial training and examination regulations
- Further training opportunities in the health professions
- Possibilities of shortening training or further education
- Recognition of education and training completed abroad
- other requirements for exercising the profession (e.g. health suitability and reliability),
- the issue of certificates for use abroad
