The aim of the project is to reduce the negative effects of COVID-19 and to strengthen health security in the Silesian Voivodeship by supporting health care facilities in the region. The state of the epidemic requires the necessary protection for healthcare professionals who come into direct contact with people who are ill and infected by the coronavirus. The project is addressed to medical institutions which, due to the epidemic situation, were placed in a state of elevated preparedness by the Wojewoda Śląskie and those which provide specialised medical services essential for the fight against COVID-19. The project will purchase and hand over the personal protective equipment recommended for use in facilities where medical assistance is provided to patients suspected of COVID-19. The project will ensure the ongoing availability of these funds for staff exposed to the coronavirus. The project will be implemented from 01.02.2020 to 30.06.2021.
