  • Palliative Care in Kosovo
    Palliative Care in Kosovo Preliminary Policy Recommendations for a National Program Presented to the National Board for Cancer Control and the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kosovo Prepared by Io Jones, Emily Schneider, and A.J. Speigelman PRS Policy Brief 1819-14 September 2018 Dartmouth Global Health Policy Lab The Class of 1964 Policy Research Shop The Global Health Initiative at the Dickey Center for International Understanding ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Prepared by Io Jones, Emily Schneider, and A.J. Spiegelman. This research was made possible through a collaboration between the University Clinical Center of Kosovo (UCCK), the National Board for Cancer Control (NBCC), the Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy and the Social Sciences, and the Global Health Initiative at the John Sloan Dickey Center for International Understanding at Dartmouth College. Our partners at UCCK, NBCC, and Action for Mothers and Children (AMC) provided invaluable guidance and advice throughout the research and writing processes. Specifically, this work would not have been possible without the patience, generosity, and goodwill of Dr. Suzana Manxhuka-Kerliu, Dr. Ilir Hoxha, Mrika Aliu, and Dr. Dafina Ademi. This project was supported by three peers at UCCK; we would like to extend our thanks to Dr. Dijon Musliu, Flaka Shoshi, and Berat Fazliu. The research process and final product benefited substantially from ongoing support provided by Dr. Ronald G. Shaiko and Anne Sosin from Dartmouth College. We thank the health practitioners, administrators, policymakers, and other stakeholders who volunteered their time to participate in interviews and welcomed the research team with hospitality. Finally, we thank the Ministry of Health for considering these recommendations to inform evidence-based policymaking and improve the quality of life and death in Kosovo.

  • Construction and Rehabilitation of Infrastructure in the Healthcare Sector in Kosovo
    Construction and Rehabilitation of Infrastructure in the Healthcare Sector in Kosovo Project Financing WBIF Grant WB21-KOS-SOC-01 € 1,000,000 EIB Loan € 14,000,000 CEB Loan € 14,000,000 Total € 29,000,000 Total Grants € 1,000,000 Total Loans € 28,000,000 Project Description Health services in Kosovo are provided through a network of health institutions organized into three levels: primary (PHC), secondary (SHC) and tertiary (THC). Secondary and tertiary healthcare is provided through the institutions established under the Law on Health, within which included a hospital, outpatient, diagnostic, therapeutic, rehabilitation services, emergency transportation, dental care and regional public health services. The system of healthcare in Kosovo is established under the principle that it shall be accessible to all citizens from all communities. The law guarantees full access to the healthcare at all levels and to all citizens including easy access to health care for disadvantaged groups (persons with disabilities and vulnerable groups). However, in practice, the existing health facilities of all levels fulfil only around 24% (MoH, 2017) of primary conditions for access to disabled groups. All regional hospitals, including UCCK, are in a very unenviable state in this aspect. This project aims to improve infrastructure concerning aspects like the physical conditions of institutions, the need for a specialized institution for treating patients in their last terminal stage of the disease, providing a hospice or respite care facility, stationary institutions, etc. in order to offer Kosovo citizens necessary health services that fulfil the basic criteria regulated by the Kosovo legislation. Results and Benefits 20 new and/or refurbished health facilities 1 new hospice centre number of inpatients up from 245,000 to 300,000 number of outpatient consultations reaching 1,000,000, up from 877,000 1,300,000 mil total number of beneficiaries, increased from 900,000 Countries: Kosovo* Code: PRJ-KOS-SOC-005 Sector: Social Monitor IFI: EIB Status: Preparation Beneficiary:.

  • The Views Expressed in This Report Are Those of the Authors And
    The views expressed in this report are those of the authors and do not necessar- ily represent those of the United Nations Development Programme or the Swiss Development Cooperation O"ce. When this report was researched and written, Kosovo was formally under the administration of the UN as per UN Security Council Resolution 1244. On 17 Feb- ruary 2008, the Kosovo Assembly declared independence and its commitment to implement the settlement proposal of UN Special Envoy Martti Ahtisaari. That declaration followed two years of negotiations that resulted in no clear agreement between Kosovo and Serbia on Kosovo’s future status. However, pending guidance from the Security Council, the UN in Kosovo will continue to consider UN SC Resolution 1244 (1999) as the legal framework for the imple- mentation of its mandate in light of evolving circumstances. The Kosovo Human Development Report 2010 would not have been published without the generous assistance of the Swiss Cooperation O"ce.

D-Line (Prishtinë/Priština, Kosovo) Printing: Gra%ka Rezniqi (Prishtinë/Priština, Kosovo) III Foreword Kosovo’s unilateral declaration of independence on 17 February 2008 was a powerful statement of intent. By claiming recognition as an independent nation and announcing its desire to become a full partner in Europe, Kosovo pledged to become a modern, open and inclusive society. The road towards the goals of Europe’s Lisbon Treaty since then has been paved with some successes in align- ing Kosovo’s legislative frameworks with European ideals and bringing greater opportunity and freedoms for its citizens.

  • Healthcare Professionals and Their Leadership in Health Institutions in Kosovo
    International Journal of Academic Research and Reflection Vol. 4, No. 2, 2016 ISSN 2309-0405 HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS AND THEIR LEADERSHIP IN HEALTH INSTITUTIONS IN KOSOVO Eglantina Kraja, MA Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The purpose of the research is to assess the opinions of healthcare professionals on the role of the leader in the effective human resource management, and application of necessary skills at the institution where working and operating. The overall goal is to know, analyze and identifye the role of the leader on effective human resources management. The research was conducted in the period May – November 2014, in: Prishtina, Mitrovica, Gjilan, Peja, Prizren and Ferizaj during which were interviewed a total of 263 employees (204 females and 59 males), in three levels of the healthcare in Kosovo. In the Healthcare Institutions in Kosovo the main problems do generate from the lack of law enforcement. The cooperation among the employees and leadership is not in the desired level, where 71% of the employees have reported that they are not informed about the activities. 50.9% of employees report that they are not satisfied with their working environment and the managerial organization at their institutions. Management staff is not given proper role, in so far as employees suggest that managers should collaborate and be committed to change, based on duties / responsibilities aiming at achieving results. Kosovo Healthcare needs essential changes in human resource management in three areas: academic-university, public and organizational policies. The implementation of these provisions would have a positive impact on strengthening human resources, enhancing cooperation and facilitating decision-making for change.
