The proceedings will be combined with the activity of the participants of "International Week - Erasmus".

Feel free to contact the Organizing Committee by writing to the following address: sympozjum@pans.nysa.pl

So far,  the work on organizing the Symposium led to the formulation of the program outline, which is available at: https://arc.pans.nysa.pl/konferencja_21_05_2019/program.pdf

It is worth comparing the original scope of topics (see Communication No. 1) with the outline of anticipated events.

In addition to individual presentations, we are currently planning to organize three important panel discussions, namely: 1. Discussion on the topic: "The state of health care in Poland and our own  guidelines for its reform or improvement"; 2. "Long-term vision of professional, holistic career of nurses and the possibility of opening the offices of nurses providing treatment."; 3. "The possible role of medical personnel in influencing global climate change by promoting dietary habits."

The languages ​​of the Symposium will be Polish and English.

We plan that these discussions will be listened by many invited people, who will have also the opportunity to express their own point of view. 

It is still possible to submit papers focused on the subject, specified in Communication No. 1. Abstracts  of the proposed papers can be submitted by February 1, 2020, by sending them to sympozjum@pans.nysa.pl . Please also register your participation via the form available at:  https://forms.gle/6xdpVMTtSLbrFzc88 

It is planned that the Publishing Office of UAS in Nysa will issue a monograph containing the submitted papers. The journal:  Medical Science Pulse - PMWSZ - Opole will also help us to publish and promote the works presented at the Symposium. https://medicalsciencepulse.com/resources/html/cms/MAINPAGE
