About
The Agaplesion Bethesda Hospital in Wuppertal is an academic teaching hospital affiliated with the Ruhr University Bochum and has recently become a new teaching hospital for the Hamburg Campus of the Neumarkt University Medical Center (UMFST-UMCH). With this collaboration, the hospital is taking another innovative approach to attract qualified young professionals: Students from the campus can now complete their practical training phases in Wuppertal.
“For us, this cooperation means the early integration of excellently trained students into our clinic processes,” confirms hospital CEO Norman Westphal. Additionally, the clinic now has another opportunity to provide practical training for highly qualified medical professionals and attract them to the hospital.
