NEX AID

The main common objective was to contribute to the strengthening of cross-border institutional cooperation between entities responsible for the provision of emergency medical assistance by developing common solutions to improve the coordination of emergency medical services.

The main objectives of the project were:

1. to implement cross-border cooperation in the field of health through the development and implementation of common protocols and cross-border agreements for the joint management of emergency medical assistance measures;

2. to design optimal joint solutions for the coordination of emergency medical services in the cross-border area;

3. the implementation of certified courses and training for Italian and Slovenian health personnel working in the field of emergency medical care.

PROJECT ACTIVITIES:

Regular meetings with project partners were held within the Project Management DG to jointly plan tasks, activities, communication and planning.

The meetings were held in person and later, due to the epidemic, via Zoom.

Under the Communication DS, events were held to promote and inform about the project. Two major events were held, namely the Kick off meeting in Venice and the closing conference in Bled.

Communication campaigns were carried out both on the project itself and on the occasion of all the activities carried out. Communication was done through local and national media.

Posters, roll-ups and a presentation brochure were produced.
