Eight medical centres from Moldova to provide telemedicine services

Chisinau, 11 November /MOLDPRES/ - Eight medical and social centres from Moldova will provide telemedicine services within a pilot project. The project is enforced by Caritas Czech Republic in partnership with the Homecare Association.  

Those eight centres will be endowed with the needed technology and the staff will be trained. More than 4,000 people will be able to benefit from consultations, with the use of the new equipment in telemedicine.

Beneficiaries of this project will be elderly people, disabled children, patients who need palliative care and victims of violence from those eight regions participating in the project: Chisinau, Balti, Donduseni, Falesti, Stefan Voda, Dubasari, Vulcanesti and Ocnita.  

The beneficiaries will get access to services of primary care, emergency assistance or services of palliative care and will benefit from specialty medical consultations, such as dermatology, internal medicine, endocrinology or psychological counseling sessions. The beneficiaries will be recommended for these services by family physicians and medical assistants from district centres, proceeding from the story of each patient individually and from the current evaluation of his/her health condition.
