Description (EN):

ITENEDNET intends to set up a permanent training mechanism in Southern Albania in order to proactively counter and, in some cases, redress the employment inequalities that will be caused by the introduction of Information Technology (IT) in the medical services market. It will also establish a life-long education and skills enhancement programme, which will help nurses keep up with state-of-the-art developments in their field. ITENEDNET aspires to create a critical mass of skill that will promote the introduction of Medical Informatics in Albania. The ITENEDNET immediate impact, therefore, will be to create a critical mass of trained personnel that will facilitate the successful introduction of IT in the area hospitals and result in a quantum leap in the local provision of medical services. The ITENEDNET goals – in regards to nursing staff – are to: - Upgrade their hospital IT skills, - To preserve their employability, in the face of the changing nature of the nursing profession - To combat discrimination on the basis of gender and educational background - To introduce the necessary changes in hospital corporate culture so that the introduction of IT in the medical establishment occurs with the minimum possible disruption.
