Topic
Hungary, as any other members of the Schengen treaty is challenged by new tasks, requiring harmonized measures and special actions on the field of human resource capacity building for the health care system. Regarding to this we are launching a new training program focusing on three main fields:
- Health care provision and management within the frame of the European Union;
- Needs for and conditions of trans-border healthcare in the EU;
- Health/ public health and mental health aspects of the assistance of most vulnerable groups like ethnic minorities and migrants.
With these objectives the course contributes to understand the main conditions and aspects of the health care provision within the EU, including such important issues as the cross-border health care and cross-border mobility of patients, and quality health assistance in a multiethnic, multicultural community.
