Bridge Now

"More than just language understanding builds trust.”

Bridge Now’s intercultural workshops bridge the gap between Indian nurses and German care teams. These interactive sessions prepare both sides for a smooth collaboration. Nurses learn about German workplace culture, communication norms, and patient interaction skills. German employers and staff learn about Indian workplace etiquette, values, and communication styles. As experts note, a preparatory intercultural workshop helps overcome cultural differences.
