Regular and Unplanned Care Adaptive Dashboard for Cross-Border Emergencies
Over ons
During cross-border health emergencies, health and care services may be overwhelmed by high numbers of patients requiring unplanned care. Delays and backlogs in regular care, due to the stretched healthcare system, leave millions of patients with regular care needs unattended, resulting in disastrous healthcare outcomes. If poor healthcare outcomes across the population are to be avoided, healthcare systems must become more resilient and flexible and allow for rapid changes in the care delivery services. RAPIDE aims to develop, validate and demonstrate a portfolio of tools that enable healthcare systems to build in robustness of decisions, resilience of the healthcare professionals and patients and flexibility in the modalities of care delivery, thereby maintaining access to regular care during health emergencies. RAPIDE emphasises opportunities for optimising in-hospital care and relocating care from hospitals to community and home environments without losing care quality. The project focuses on two linked challenges 1. Identifying and predicting how much care, and which care, needs to be moved along the care chain; 2. Identifying and verifying effective, feasible and acceptable ways to make this reconfiguration of care a reality. This will be achieved by (a) resource modelling which builds comprehensive foresight and forecasting solutions and links them to patient flow optimization, along the whole chain of care, (b) selecting and implementing the best available tools to deliver regular care in new ways. RAPIDE will be co-designed and co-validated with stakeholders. A Table Top Exercise and extensive communication and dissemination will raise awareness of the project’s successes. Funded by the EU.

Don't miss the talk by Dr Sarah Cuschieri tomorrow afternoon! Here, she will examine the epidemiological impact of COVID-19 on Malta, a small island nation with distinct healthcare challenges. It will cover Malta’s pandemic trends, the direct and indirect burden on the population and healthcare system, and the outcomes of its rapid vaccination campaign. Comparisons will be made with other European islands and microstates, highlighting key differences in response strategies.
University of Malta PI Dr Sarah Cuschieri will present research in an upcoming webinar hosted by the University of Malta Islands & Small States Institute: "Epidemiological Insights from Malta: COVID-19 Trends, Vaccination Impact, and Lessons for Future Global Preparedness." Sarah will present collaborative research on Malta's #COVID19 experience, highlighting key trends, vaccination outcomes, and essential lessons for global health resilience and compare their findings with other small countries, offering a broader perspective on navigating pandemic challenges. She will also introduce the RAPIDE Project EU. 🗓️ When: 28 November 2024, 2 PM (CET) 🔗 Register https://lnkd.in/g7t9YTn8.
Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Epidemiological insights from Malta: COVID-19 trends, vaccination impact, and lessons for future global preparedness. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

The PRICOV-19 study analyzed how GP practices in 38 countries adapted their practices to provide safe, effective, person-centred, and equitable care during the pandemic. More than 5,500 GP practices completed an online questionnaire. The study's scale and international design allowed it to identify areas for improvement and contribute to developing strategies to better prepare for future crises. This position paper, Moving Forward After the COVID-19 Pandemic: Lessons Learned in Primary Care, provides eight recommendations to foster #primarycare preparedness for future crises based on the PRICOV-19 study. https://lnkd.in/eFZd9Wgr

We’re excited to showcase Proud Engineers’ role in the RAPIDE Project EU, working to strengthen healthcare resilience across Europe. 🌍 This ambitious project, running through 2028, aims to develop digital tools that balance traditional and online care, making healthcare more adaptable for patients and easing providers' workloads. With team members Hille Hinsberg, Igor Bossenko and Laura Kask, Proud Engineers is leading efforts to identify digital tools suitable for hybrid care pathways —testing impactful tools in Slovenia, Italy, Malta, and the Netherlands. Gongratulations on your great work! 👏 #ProudEngineers #Tehnopol #HealthTech #DigitalHealth #EUInnovation
⚕️ We are excited to share our active participation in the RAPIDE Project EU, which brings together research and innovation to enhance healthcare systems. RAPIDE stands for "Regular and Unplanned Care Adaptive Dashboard for Cross-Border Emergencies" and unites 13 project partners from seven countries, all working towards transformative approaches in healthcare. Running from January 2024 to December 2028, the project focuses on improving patient flow and creating a more agile balance between traditional care, online appointments, and apps tailored to patients’ needs, ultimately easing the workload on healthcare providers. Key Objectives: 🔹 Develop, validate, and demonstrate a portfolio of tools supporting robust decision-making. 🔹 Strengthen resilience for healthcare professionals, patients, and caregivers. 🔹 Enable flexible care delivery. "This international collaboration brings new insights into the role of technology and helps to understand the value of innovation in providing healthcare. Working with clinicians keeps the focus on the real-life needs of health professionals and patients. Digital tools can only be effective if they center on the user," says Hille, RAPIDE project manager from the Proud Engineers team. Proud Engineers experts Hille Hinsberg, Igor Bossenko, and Laura Kask are leading efforts to identify digital tools suitable for hybrid care pathways. These tools will undergo rigorous assessment to meet high standards in quality, security, and usability. Each tool will be tested in diverse use cases across Slovenia, Italy, Malta, and the Netherlands, providing insight into their impact and applicability. *RAPIDE is funded by the European Union. The views and opinions expressed are those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or the European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HADEA).

It is a pleasure to introduce Dr Binyam Bogale Bungudo, a researcher based at NTNU i Ålesund working with Professor Simon Lewin. "With the rapid expansion of digital health tools in healthcare delivery, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s fascinating to explore how it interacts with patient pathways. My focus [in RAPIDE Project EU] will be identifying these tools used to maintain routine for tracer medical conditions and to conduct systematic reviews of effectiveness on two selected digital tools. The goal is to apply lessons from the COVID-19 period to better prepare for future health emergencies." Read the interview here https://lnkd.in/eiJx_7Kq
