Practical learning

"I particularly enjoy the practical learning in my nursing studies: in addition to seminars and lectures, we have the so-called skills lab once a week. Here we learn and deepen nursing actions on mannequins or on each other. And we put this, as well as the theoretical content, into practice in the practical assignments that are integrated into our studies!"
