Elderly Care Training

More and more people today are in need of care, and the demand for appropriate support is growing accordingly. If you are open towards older and younger people and people with disabilities, and also enjoy helping in everyday life, this course is exactly right for you. You qualify as a care worker in line with state requirements and, with the knowledge newly acquired with us, can support people in need of care with their emotional, social and mental needs. With our life companion training, we offer participants a comprehensive basic education for working in a new field. The life companion training provides you with the knowledge, skills and abilities required for the responsible and independent care and support of older or younger people.
