The Protestant Education Center for Health Professions Stuttgart (EBZ) operates state-approved schools for health and nursing as well as health and nursing assistance, at which a total of 279 students are taught. Integrated into the health and nursing education, a bachelor's degree in nursing can also be completed at the Evangelical University of Ludwigsburg . In addition, the EBZ offers advanced training in the areas of nursing science , nursing education and nursing practice. So it leads u. a. the specialist training for practical guidance in nursing, which enables professional nurses to train students in practice. The school is run by the Evangelisches Bildungszentrum für Gesundheitsberufe Stuttgart gGmbH , whose shareholders are the Diakonie-Klinikum Stuttgart Diakonissenkrankenhaus and Paulinenhilfe gGmbH, the Karl-Olga-Krankenhaus GmbH and the Sana Klinik Bethesda Stuttgart gGmbH.

history

The EBZ emerged from the nursing schools that each operated its three supporting hospitals until they were merged.

Nursing school at the Diakonie-Klinikum

The nursing school at the Diakonissenkrankenhaus and later Diakonie-Klinikum is the oldest of the three schools. In 1854, the Evangelische Diakonissenanstalt Stuttgart , founded in the same year, expressly declared nursing training in the deaconess hospital to be its purpose. The co-founder of the Diakonissenanstalt, Charlotte Reihlen , campaigned strongly for the establishment of the school, as the nursing care in the city was extremely inadequate. At that time there was no training and no trained nursing staff, although the Katharinenhospital (with around 230 beds), the Paulinenhilfe (with 15 orthopedic beds), the Olgaheilanstalt (especially for children and adolescents), the military hospital (with around 45 patients) and the Court hospital were to operate. The royal family entrusted the health care in the court hospital to the deaconess institution. It is the first deaconess house in Württemberg and the 16th new foundation within the Kaiserswerther mother house diakonie (today the Kaiserswerther Association of German deaconesses mother houses ).

In 1866 the new deaconess hospital on the corner of Falkertstraße / Forststraße was moved into. At that time there were already 55 sisters in the Diakonissenanstalt. In the same year, Senior Medical Officer Paul von Sick (1836-1900) took over the management of the hospital. He also gave medical lessons at school and until his death had a major impact on education with his holistic Christian, homeopathic approach. In its time, the deaconess hospital was one of the most important homeopathic hospitals in Germany.

In 1873 nursing training was redesigned and organizationally expanded to meet the growing demands. The range of subjects - with the exception of dance and foreign languages ​​- was comparable to that of the Stuttgart higher girls' school Königin-Katharina-Stift , a pioneer for high school education for women. The subjects taught reflected what was then felt to be appropriate for women in higher education. In the Diakonissenanstalt, in addition to technical and nursing education, general education was expressly rated as important and viewed as part of vocational training. Growing up as a woman in a men's society, Charlotte Reihlen was fortunate enough to receive a higher education, which was not intended for women at the time, through her father's private lessons. Before the Diakonissenanstalt was founded, she was involved in setting up a secondary school for girls, the Weidle's Daughter Institute, from which today's Evangelical Mörike-Gymnasium Stuttgart emerged. Now that she had daughters of her own, she wanted to give them this education too.

For a long time the Diakonissenanstalt pursued this concept of combining vocational and general education, which was also strongly influenced by the Kaiserswerther Association. That is why the state examination was only introduced in the nursing school in 1933.

In addition to the technical and pedagogical professionalization, the endeavor to provide up-to-date diaconal education for future nurses remained a central concern of the school and the school authority. This is represented by the overall concept of “Diaconal Education”, which was developed in the 1990s.

Nursing school at the Karl Olga Hospital

In 1872, shortly after the end of the Franco-German War, nursing courses were set up at the Heilbronn Municipal Hospital on the initiative of the central management of the charity in Württemberg and in agreement with the Württemberg Medical Association with the aim of training nurses for use in communities, later also hospitals and so on to meet the prevailing shortage of nurses. The nurses undertook to be available to the medical association in the event of war, which became a reality in the First World War . The initiator and sponsor of the school was the chairman of the medical association, Pastor Christoph Ulrich Hahn (1805–1881), a close friend of Henry Dunant (1828–1910) and a pioneer of social services in Württemberg. In 1878 an association was founded to which the central management made responsibility for the nursing school. The sisters got their own house, the Olgahaus. In accordance with the principles of the Red Cross, Hahn had given the school a non-denominational Christian-humanitarian character, which developed early on in an evangelical direction. The nurses approached the deaconesses in their outer and inner habitus. On the other hand, there was a close connection to the royal family. The nurses called themselves from 1886 after their patroness, Queen Olga von Württemberg (1822-1892), "Sisters of the Olga House" and later " Olga Sisters ".

Disagreements in the Heilbronn hospital led to the dissolution of the association in 1892 and the temporary relocation of the school to the district hospital in Heidenheim an der Brenz. Under the aegis of Pastor Eberhard von Falch (1851-1919), member of the central management for charity and an important engine for the further development of the Württemberg social system, the association was re-established in Stuttgart in the same year, whose patronage was Queen Charlotte von Württemberg (1864 –1946) took over. In 1894, the mother house of the sisters and their school moved into the Karl Olga Hospital, which was built especially for them. The association was very interested in the training of qualified nurses for the hospital and community nursing. In 1908, following a Federal Council resolution, the standardized state examination was introduced after a year of training. This created the conditions for the school to receive state recognition in 1909 as one of the first nursing schools in Württemberg. From now on, her students took a “state exam”. The aim of the training was, in addition to a thorough technical qualification, to promote general education as well as religious and moral education. It was based on an image of nursing competence, which was closely linked on the one hand with the ideas of female virtue at the time, and on the other hand with a clear Protestant understanding of self and profession.

In 1923 the Olga Sisters left the Red Cross and joined the Kaiserswerther Association of German Deaconess Mother Houses. 1950 to 1952 the school had a branch at the district hospital in Heidenheim. Since the 1990s, efforts have been made to develop a profile that combines diaconal orientation, pedagogical professionalism and (scientifically substantiated) professionalism.

Nursing School at Bethesda Hospital

In contrast to the nursing schools at the Diakonie-Klinikum and Karl-Olga-Krankenhaus, which were assigned to the Evangelical Church in Württemberg and the Diakonisches Werk Württemberg , the Evangelical Methodist Church formed the orientation framework for the nursing school at Bethesda Hospital .

After the first beginnings of outpatient care in 1896, the Bethesda Hospital was established in Stuttgart in 1912, but it did not yet conduct its own nursing training. The applicants for the deaconess office were trained centrally in Elberfeld (near Wuppertal) at the hospital affiliated with the Bethesda mother house, which operated a state-recognized nursing school from 1914. Immediately after the Second World War , in 1947, a nursing school was set up at the Bethesda Hospital in Stuttgart in view of the growing need for personnel and training. This school, too, opened up to new developments in nursing and pedagogy since the early 1990s.

Recent developments

The nursing training of the mother houses was part of the deaconess training. However, members of other sororities as well as nurses who did not belong to their own sorority (so-called auxiliary sisters) had always been trained at the schools. The latter were integrated into the sororities as union sisters (today Diakonische Schwestern und Brüder) during the time of the “Third Reich” in order to prevent their integration into the National Socialist sister organization. After the Second World War, the number of young women who wanted to become deaconesses fell sharply, so that the schools developed into nursing schools with a general diaconal profile. Since the late 1950s, men have also been included in the training.

In 1998, the owners of the three schools decided to merge them into one school with a new, separate identity. In 2003 the EBZ was founded. Soon the training and further education offerings were extended to the target group of non-nursing health professions. In 2010, a cooperation with the Hamburger Fern-Hochschule (HFH) for a bachelor's degree in health care studies was started. In 2013, the school moved from its original location at Stöckachstrasse 48 to the newly built House of Diaconal Education, a modern school building at Nordbahnhofstrasse 131, where it forms a community with the vocational school for geriatric care and geriatric care assistance of the Diakonisches Institut für Soziale Profufe. In the same year, the school for health and nursing assistance was set up in the EBZ. Since 2014, schoolchildren with a university entrance qualification have been able to study nursing alongside their training at the Evangelical University of Ludwigsburg.

as well as in a number of other inpatient, semi-inpatient and outpatient care and health facilities. It is carried out by the nursing staff there, in particular by practical instructors who are qualified in professional education.

School profile

The EBZ is a Protestant school with a diaconal profile.

It would like to offer its students orientations that help them to develop their own points of view on the ethical questions connected with their care activities, to exchange ideas with one another and to find suitable ways for the care recipient as well as for themselves. In addition, the good cooperation between learners and teachers, the support of the trainees in learning and growing into the profession as well as the promotion of responsibility for one's own learning and development process are seen as important concerns.

Cooperations

The EBZ works with educational institutions on a national and international level. Schoolchildren in health care and nursing have the opportunity to do training abroad, for example in hospitals in Vienna or at L'Ospedale Evangelico Villa Betania in Naples. The EBZ participated in scientific projects u. a. the Evangelical University of Ludwigsburg (development of the bachelor's degree in Nursing) and the Evangelical and Catholic Institute for Vocational Religious Education (EIBOR and KIBOR ) at the Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen (ethical-interreligious education in care). There are also contacts to the University of Esslingen (bachelor's degree in nursing education) and the Medical University of Graz (master's degree in health and nursing science).

Nursing education students can complete their teaching internship at the EBZ.
