Objective
Economic restrictions and innovative clinical practices have significant implications for European health care systems. In addition, new social demands are putting pressure on health care sector organisations and training providers to develop new structures of health care provision. The overall objective of this pilot project is to identify common skill requirements and develop an integrated training package for health, encompassing hospital-based specialist assessment and a systematic holistic programme for home care. The new training programme will enable professional and volunteer care workers in partner countries to develop their own personal portfolios towards vocational qualifications linked to European health care accreditation.
The project partnership will develop training modules to facilitate life-long learning and continuing vocational training which will upgrade the skills of care workers and meet the individual needs of the patient. A multi-skilling approach will facilitate the flexibility and mobility of the workforce and enhance career opportunities.
Impact
The project will affect the future planning and structure of health care provision and provide a training model for transfer to other areas of the health care system. Training providers will have access to a model of vocational health care training not currently available.
