| Anotation | From pilot testing conducted in 2023, insufficient education and awareness regarding personal health care were identified among individuals living in socially excluded localities. An increased incidence of infectious diseases was also observed in this population. For this reason, similar activities were carried out in 2024 and 2025 with comparable results. In the interest of protecting the entire population, it is therefore desirable to respond to this situation with a mobile service that brings care directly to the citizens. The main objective of this project is to raise awareness about health care prevention and to protect public health. This will be supported by the early detection of selected infectious diseases (HIV, hepatitis C, syphilis), screening of blood glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure, and, based on the results of laboratory tests and examinations, providing education on prevention options or recommendations to initiate timely treatment. |
