India and Kerala – our regional focus

Kerala – where nursing is a tradition.

A narrow, green strip of coast in India’s south-west – and for generations one of the world’s most important regions for educating nursing professionals. Nursing in Kerala is taught in English, within a dense network of nursing schools, colleges and teaching hospitals.

≈ 94 %literacy – the highest rate of all Indian states (Census 2011)
3–4 yearsof nursing education: GNM diploma (3 years) or B.Sc. Nursing (4 years), taught in English
≈ 35 mpeople live in Kerala – capital Thiruvananthapuram, language Malayalam
≈ 7,500 kmbetween Kochi and Frankfurt – and a time difference of 3.5 to 4.5 hours

Strong education

Kerala has a long tradition of nursing education. Many of our partner institutions prepare candidates specifically for the requirements of the German healthcare system.

Internationally experienced

Nursing professionals from Kerala have worked around the world for decades. International mobility is part of everyday life here – in families, schools and the profession itself.

The person counts – not the origin

At IndoMedCare, we do not base selection on origin or generalised assumptions; the individual qualification, motivation and suitability of each applicant remain decisive.

Recruiting responsibly

We work with selected partners and educational institutions and require our cooperation partners to comply with the principles of fair recruitment.

Before each active recruitment project, the current legal and international requirements are taken into account, including the WHO safeguard provisions. India is not on the WHO Health Workforce Support and Safeguards List (as of 2023) – the list of countries from which active recruitment should not take place.
