About this book

Vital signs. Washing and moving patients. Hygiene rules and isolation. Blood sugar. A handover you can follow. A confused resident and a worried relative.

This book follows Anjali, a nurse from Kerala, through her first six months as a nursing assistant on a German ward and in a care home while her recognition is in progress, and teaches the German that wards really use, explained in English.

Independent learning material. This book does not guarantee a language certificate, a job or professional recognition: the responsible authority decides. All people and places are invented.

What you’ll learn

  • 20 units in five modules: new on the team, basic care, hygiene and safety, the care home, the team and the next step
  • In every unit: a ward scene, key phrases, a listening task, a role-play model, a Your turn track with pauses for you to speak, and a sound check for clear pronunciation
  • B1 grammar at work, taught through real ward language: the dative, the past, relative clauses, the passive, connectors, indirect questions and more
  • A short documentation task in every unit (checklists, vital-signs entries, care records, observation notes, an admission form, a formal email), with model answers
  • Real ward German: what colleagues really say, what to say to patients and residents, and what to write
  • Five module reviews with exam-style tasks, a B1 self-check, a grammar reference, a list of ward abbreviations and a word list of over 400 words
  • 125 audio tracks with AI-generated voices, included via the QR code in the book

Who it’s for

Nurses and care workers trained outside Germany with A2 German who work, or will soon work, on a German ward or in a care home. Instructions and explanations are in English.
