Emergency medicine training for Croatia: a Croatia-Australia partnership.

摘要

As part of a health system improvement project, the Republic of Croatia has been conducting a pilot project aimed at rationalizing care delivery across the primary care, hospital and secondary care systems. One component was the development of an emergency department at Dr T Bardek Hospital in Koprivnica and training of its staff. This paper describes how a training programme was conducted, using an established emergency department in Australia as the training host, and the outcome of the project. This type of training programme could form a model for specialist Emergency Medicine training in the future.
