Sažetak
Background One of the EU Health Strategy’s concrete themes includes “empowering citizens – putting patients at the heart of the system and encouraging them to be involved in managing their own healthcare needs“. Preventive care should therefore not be left to doctors and hospitals only, individuals must also be empowered to become “smart patients“. Objectives The European transnational project „Smart Patients“ is supported by the European Commission under the current Erasmus+ programme which enables the strategic partnership between european institutions under its Key Action 2: Cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices. The main objectives of the „Smart Patients“project are: to empower citizens to become expert patients and develop self-confidence and patients' competence ; develop practice oriented support that empowers them to detect health issues at an early stage, contributing to healthy living ; develop internet and mobile application tools for preventive self- care ; provide the translations of the materials into domestic european languages and also languages of migrants and refugees. Methods The following activities has been conducted: Framework Analysis with focus group meetings ; development of intellectual outputs (Needs assessment report, tools, online platform, mobile apps) ; testing in collaboration with health organisations ; dissemination activities (informative website http://smartpatientinfo.eu/) and multiplier events and transnational meetings. Results The main results and achievements of the project are anticipated impact on the european citizens: increased sense of initiative for their health ; increased level of digital competence ; more active participation in society ; increased opportunities for personal development through a healthier lifestyle. It is expected that by the end of the project more than 7500 EU citizens will interact with the Smart Patients platform and tools. Anticipated impact on the stakeholders is to accept „ Smart Patients“ as effective way of delivering health initiatives and promoting a healthy lifestyle.
