The 14th International Scientific Conference connects. It connects health care sciences in practice and supports cooperation between different healthcare professions. It connects theory, practice and research findings with users. It places professional findings into a broader context to promote the necessary improvements.

The conference aims to present the current research and development work in the fields of nursing, health promotion, physiotherapy, and other healthcare professions. 

The goal is to integrate healthcare professions in practice and disseminate proposed improvements. This will establish a knowledge triangle between the academic and clinical environment for user's well-being.

You are invited to submit first abstracts and later on scientific papers in the fields of nursing, health promotion, physiotherapy, and all other areas of healthcare.
