The second MICE project meeting

On April 24 and 25 we had the pleasure of attending the second partnership meeting within MICE project. The College of Nursing from Celje (Slovenia), is a relatively young institution, yet a recognized center for educating students in a modern way. The work at the meeting was very dynamic, and all participants were equally engaged in all discussions directly related to the project. The key aspect of this meeting was to determine the shape of the course for nurses working in intensive care units. The partners, taking into account the results of the research, jointly set up the framework and structure of the training materials, thereby defining the next steps to be taken in the project.

One of the European federation of Critical Care Nurses associations’ main responsibilities in the MICE-ICU project is the promotion of the project and dissemination of results to the main target group – critical care nurses from Europe. The group members agreed on the fact that appropriate information disseminated on a transnational level adds value in terms of project outcomes.

After the first project meeting in Poland in November 2016 the members of the dissemination group started with the introduction of the project to Critical Care nursing organisations in Europe. Through its 28 member organisations the European federation is able to reach approximately 25.000 Critical Care Nurses in Europe.

Additionally the group is aiming to ascertain a regular information flow regarding project news and achievements. The provision and distribution of printed and digital material is seen as another means to target groups.
