Back to the IMPROVING PATH
The general objective of the Joint Action on European Health Workforce Planning and Forecasting is to help countries to move forward on the planning process of health workforce and to prepare the future of the health workforce by creating a platform for collaboration and exchange between Member States. This will help the EU Member States to take effective and sustainable measures in terms of healthcare planning and forecasting.
The Handbook tries to make a contribution in this direction.
Referring to the objective of the Action Plan “Improve Workforce Planning”, it is achievable mostly through the collaboration between the different Member States and stakeholders.
The Handbook can represent an important step in activating an effective, efficient and permanent cooperation between Member States. While writing these conclusions, we are having the first signs of this cooperation: having started with the two Pilot Studies and in the two Feasibility Study, already the people of the four countries involved are starting talking to each other to find common solution. We hope that these first contacts, done “in the light of the Handbook” are the beginnings of a future HWF European network.
