PROJECT TITLE: “Innovative patient centred health care services - advantages of establishing a close CE network in celiac disease patient health care”
Project duration: 36 months (01.06.2016. – 31.05.2019)
Healthy and active aging is one of the greatest social challenges in the EU in view of longer life expectancy. Early prevention of chronic diseases that have severe impact on general well-being of patients is extremely important if we want to reach this goal and ensure sustainable health care systems in central Europe. A lack of development and promotion of innovative quality health services, disease management models and education have a profound negative effect.
To tackle this challenge, Focus in CD will demonstrate development and pilot testing of innovative health service model in management of celiac disease, that can serve as reference model for other chronical diseases.
