What to expect
In Switzerland, a Pflegefachperson HF typically earns between CHF 70,000 and CHF 95,000 per year — meaningfully higher than the EUR 25,000–40,000 common in Germany and many source markets. Hospitals and clinics pay placement fees for pre-qualified nurses with a language profile.

About SRK Anerkennung
The dossier we generate is a pre-application aid. The final SRK Anerkennung requires submitting original documents to the Swiss Red Cross and can take several months. We can prepare the process — only the SRK can finalize it.

We work with you in Croatian, German, or English — your choice. Hospitals receive the dossier in German.
