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

  • What else should I know?
