Balkan regional mobile healthcare initiatives

Overview

Regional healthcare efforts in the Balkans are increasingly utilizing mobile units to reach rural and remote populations. In Croatia and Serbia, initiatives have focused on deploying mobile family medicine units, pharmacies, and ambulances equipped with diagnostic tools like EKG and ultrasound to serve elderly and less mobile citizens.

Building on these mobile service models, the DIABEYES project has launched as a cross-border partnership between Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro. This specific initiative, led by the Zadar Public Health Institute, utilizes mobile teams and digital tools to focus on the early detection of diabetes and eye health complications in hard-to-reach areas.
