The 1st Baltic Emergency Medicine Congress is a significant event in the healthcare sector and the first large-scale international event in the history of emergency medicine in Latvia.

Tas norisināsies Starptautiskajā Neatliekamās medicīnas dienā, simboliski uzsverot neatliekamās medicīnas būtisko lomu pacientu drošībā, sabiedrības veselībā un veselības aprūpes sistēmas noturībā. Pasākums pulcēs vienkopus neatliekamās medicīnas profesionāļus no ASV, Francijas, Ukrainas, Latvijas, Lietuvas un Igaunijas, tādējādi veidojot platformu zināšanu apmaiņai, profesionālai diskusijai un starpvalstu sadarbības stiprināšanai.

Neatliekamā medicīna gan pirmsslimnīcas posmā, gan slimnīcu neatliekamās medicīnas centros ir viena no stratēģiski nozīmīgākajām veselības aprūpes jomām. Kongress aktualizēs neatliekamās palīdzības sistēmas attīstības jautājumus, cilvēkresursu izaicinājumus, profesionālās kompetences un inovācijas akūtas medicīniskās palīdzības nodrošināšanā.

Target audience: emergency medicine specialists, doctors, assistant doctors, general medical staff, medical residents, RSU students un academic staff
