Main target group, medical professionals in 3 hospitals in trauma departments, will be improving current capacities in injury management in order to provide quicker and more efficient treatment, as all hospitals involved face professional insufficiencies. Overall objective of the project is to contibute to improved quality of health services in Programme area. The specific objective of the project is to implement innovative healthcare practices for improved treatment of patients with trauma by investments in existing physical and human capacities for improved trauma patient care backed with ICT communication solutions to ensure knowledge sharing and networking of medical staff. The project tends to balance level of services in three hospitals involved - Kotor hospital being the least equipped and not having a proper trauma department at all.
