SZS Turnov is located in Liberec region, just an hour away from Prague. The school is a proud winner of “School of the Year Award 2011” in this region. Despite its long history, there has been an excessive renovation of the facilities in 2012 which allows students to access the latest technologies for their professional training.

The main advantage of SZS Turnov is its location, because the whole school is located between Turnov Hospital and Old Age Home Pohoda. Therefore, students have the unique opportunity to complete some of their classes in those facilities so they can interact with real patients.

Nurses Adaptation Programme

This program is primarily designed to adapt a foreign educated nurse to practice in Czech nursing system. The major portion of the program would be dedicated in learning Intensive Czech Language and Medical terminology in Czech Language. Course module also consists of legal framework of Czech health care system and Practical training in Partner Hospitals, which would be an integral part of the program.
