Young people start care teaching in Taxham and Großgmain

In the senior homes of Taxham and Großgmain, the first young people have now started their training. This innovative apprenticeship training emphasizes that it is also important for young people to deal with the topic of geriatric care. The decision to introduce a care teaching could be a step in the right direction to meet the demographic challenges in nursing.

The interest in the care of the care shows that many young people are willing to get involved in the needs of older generations. The learners, such as Giulia Uneg and Anna Vötterl, are now part of a promising initiative that not only promotes practical skills in geriatric care, but also sharpens the understanding of social responsibility.

The switch to modern training

An interesting specialty of this training is that dental technology teaching is linked to a bachelor's degree. This link could help young people to develop a broader spectrum of skills that can be used in various areas of health care. During the first training period, the focus is not on basic physical care. Nursing expert Martina Rund confirms this and emphasizes that other therapeutic approaches are in the foreground in the early stages.

As part of the training, modern aids such as Empathie doll are also used, which are specially designed for dealing with dementia and Alzheimer's patients. This method not only gives the trainees important skills, but also sensitizes them to the emotional challenges of the nursing profession. These approaches promote a deep understanding of the needs of older people and say a lot about the quality of the training and the dedication of the apprentices.

The goal of the city

Those responsible have a clear plan: they want to train 18 new apprentices for the nursing sector every year. Benjamin Braunstein, the nursing manager, emphasizes the importance of this initiative for the future development of nursing in the city of Salzburg. With the training of young people, not only the need for nurses is covered, but also the attractiveness of the profession increases. The city takes another step towards a future -oriented and sustainable health care.

Overall, the start of the care teaching in the retirement homes is a positive step that strengthens the understanding of the challenges in geriatric care and at the same time prepares the next generation for this important role. The complete information on this new training path is on www.s.at
