President´s speech

Dear colleagues, dear friends,

allow me to address you in this way and invite you on behalf of the organizers to the Conference on emergency medical services. For the first time in the history of Slovakia, in November 2023, we are organizing a conference in Bratislava, which will be devoted solely to the issues of the system of organization, management, financing and, in particular, development trends in emergency medical services. We are preparing a rich professional and social program for you as an opportunity to establish new contacts as well as to create a communication network of experts in the given field. Your participation, whether active or passive, is a great opportunity to take away something new from the event on the topics of past development, current status and future image of EMS activity.

We look forward to meeting you.
President of the conference MUDr. Jozef Karaš, MPH, MSc.

Dear colleagues, friends,

AGEL is the most successful private health care provider in Central Europe. It operates almost 40 medical facilities in Slovakia and the Czech Republic alone, through which it provides inpatient health care, ambulatory health care, laboratory diagnostics and specialized health care.

The company AGEL Merea a.s. is a member of the AGEL group with a primary focus on transport health services, educational activities for health workers and the general public, and emergency medical services. Together with my colleagues, we have been dedicated to emergency pre-hospital health care and emergency medical services for almost our entire professional life. During this period, we managed to establish and especially develop invaluable contacts in the affected segment, not only in the domestic environment, but mainly abroad. Emergency prehospital health care is a living organism that requires continuous evolutionary changes in the context of the environment that surrounds it. It includes immediate institutional health care and, of course, ambulatory health care.
