Qualification-goals/Competencies:
- Broadening/deepening/understanding knowledge: Students expand and deepen their own situation-specific nursing and related scientific knowledge and skills for the safe, evidence-based and critically reflected planning, organisation, design, implementation, control and evaluation of integrated patient-oriented or person-centred nursing and therapy processes for people with medically confirmed diabetic metabolic conditions, chronic or severely healing wounds and/or dementia and their caregivers (hereinafter: in the aforementioned indication areas) in complex and highly complex care situations.
- Use and transfer: Students are able to independently and autonomously plan, organise, design, implement, control and evaluate integrated care and therapy processes using in-depth research-based knowledge for people with the aforementioned indications in complex and highly complex care situations in a patient- and person-centred manner. This includes comprehensive medical and nursing assessments and, if necessary, the initiation of further diagnostics. (For detailed competences per indication area, see Appendix 5 Part B Clauses II, III and IV of the Nursing Professions Training and Examination Ordinance)

- Use and transfer: As part of the independent and autonomous performance of extended medical tasks in the care of people in the aforementioned indication areas, students can identify situationally appropriate needs for information, counselling, training and guidance services and submit, adapt or design and evaluate scientifically based services. In doing so, they take into account nursing and care science methods, professional ethical principles and reflect on the illness concepts and the coping work of those affected and their carers.
- Communication and coordination: Students are able to communicate clinical assessments, therapy and care decisions and prescriptions for medical devices and aids appropriately to relevant addressees or document them for the purposes of care safety, billing, quality assurance and research.
