• Building future through an innovated and digital skilled hospital


      The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the fragility of healthcare systems but also the resilience of health professionals. 

      To better equip healthcare workers for crisis situations and patient-oriented care, a European task force has created the #e-Hospital4Future project. The project aims to provide training modules for healthcare professionals that combine soft skills, technical skills, and digital skills, including emotional resilience and digital skills that become relevant in crisis situations. 

      The goal is to boost international cooperation in health, strengthen national health systems through the development of digital tools and services, and improve the skills of clinical and non-clinical healthcare professionals at the European level.
