Vascular Assistance + Endovascular Assistance
The increasing shift of non-medical and administrative tasks to doctors – such as coding and documentation – the shortage of young doctors, time-pressured workflows – good patient care cannot be achieved by doctors alone. As early as 2006, the German Society for Vascular Surgery and Vascular Medicine was the first German professional association to come up with the idea of supporting medical staff by providing tailor-made further training for medical assistants, and commissioned the Private Academy DGG to develop a corresponding further training programme.
With the further training courses "Vascular Assistance" and "Endovascular Assistance", the appropriate training and further training programme was developed and the specialist qualifications "Vascular Assistance" and "Endovascular Assistance" were defined. They are sought-after specialists in clinics and report to doctors in terms of organisation and expertise, acting on medical instructions.
Endovascular Assistance (EVA)
This one-year, part-time continuing education programme is aimed at surgical technicians (OTA), surgical nurses, medical radiology technicians (MTRA), nurses, medical functional assistants and vascular assistants (DGG), provided they have proven surgical experience.
