– Modernisation of the infrastructure required to provide secondary care outpatient specialised healthcare, outpatient surgery, and day surgery services at Antakalnis Health Centre. Medical and other equipment will be purchased.
Project target group: residents of Vilnius City Municipality, healthcare professionals, and other specialists working in the healthcare sector.
Planned outcomes: During the implementation of the project, the infrastructure for general practice (family medicine), primary dental care, secondary care outpatient cardiology, ophthalmology, ENT (otorhinolaryngology), obstetrics and gynaecology, radiology (diagnostic X-ray), physical medicine and rehabilitation physician services, outpatient surgery, and day surgery services allocated to the health centre will be modernised. It is expected that the newly created and/or improved statutory compliant infrastructure for healthcare services allocated to the health centre will be used by more than 120,000 patients registered with the collaborating institutions of Antakalnis Health Centre.
