Emergency Health Project

Projektträger – zwischengeschaltetes Finanzinstitut

Serbian Ministry of Health

Beschreibung

The proposed project (which would be the first in the Health Sector to be financed by the Bank in the Region) consists of emergency measures in a selected number of regional and district hospitals across the country.

Ziele

The main objective of this EIB intervention is to restore basic facility functions (heating, laundry, catering) and essential clinical services (x-ray and other equipment). Hospitals suffer from long-standing neglect, and basic infrastructure as well as medical equipment are in serious disrepair, often either not functional or dangerous to patients and staff. The repair of the basic facilities would also imply major savings in the desperately short finances of hospitals.
