NSRF: nearly €6 million for nursing and physiotherapy protocols
Two projects have a combined public budget of €5,999,021. They cover school nursing and a proposed frailty action plan for people aged 65 and over.
Two projects with a combined public budget of €5,999,021 are being included in the NSRF Human Resources and Social Cohesion 2021–2027 programme, the finance and health ministries jointly announced on November 11. Funding concerns protocols and tools intended to improve the quality of healthcare services.
The larger component, €3,800,848, concerns national planning for nursing and healthcare protocols, including school nursing. It covers areas such as primary and long-term care, prevention, mental health and addictions, as well as digital tools supporting clinical decisions.
The second component, €2,198,173, provides for at least 80 scientifically documented physiotherapy protocols. It also includes preparation of a proposed National Action Plan to prevent and manage frailty among people aged 65 and over.
The announced stage is inclusion of the projects in the funding programme. Better care and patient safety are intended outcomes, not measured results of completed implementation. No individual benefit or patient application process is announced, and the proposed plan for older people is not presented as an already operational national plan.
