BRC in Bayreuth explores new paths in caregiving
To ensure that people in Germany can age with dignity in the future, the Bayreuth District Association of the BRC has set the goal of designing caregiving in a forward-looking manner. With an international partner network, the Bayreuth District Association of the BRC is seeking solutions to successfully address challenges such as the shortage of skilled workers and demographic change in the caregiving sector.
Global partnership
A promising partner in this initiative is the Gansu Medical College from the Chinese province of Gansu, which boasts over 65 years of experience in training medical and healthcare professionals.
