The general objective of the proposed project is to increase patient safety in Vâlcea County Emergency Hospital through investments that create the necessary premises for the efficient management of the COVID-19 emergency situation, also contributing to the local, regional and national development, by improving and reducing inequalities in the health status of the population, as traditional patients of the hospital, as well as employees, come from all over the country. The achievement of this objective will be achieved by assessing the current situation of the installations and by executing the works for the installation of detection, signalling, fire alarm systems with total coverage and signaling and alarm detection in case of exceedance of the maximum allowed oxygen concentration in the atmosphere and of the intervention works on the electrical infrastructure, ventilation and air treatment, as well as the infrastructure of medical fluids, actions that will contribute to the achievement of the programme’s result indicator. The programme result indicator (appropriate care and treatment of cases of SARS-CoV-2/health crisis management) is qualitative: • Before LIOP intervention: NO, NO, NO, NO. • After the LIOP intervention: YES, YES. Health is a vital economic sector, which is why it is fundamental to be able to ensure the health and well-being of the population. According to the country profile in the field of health for Romania published by the European Commission, the health system in Romania is characterised by low financing and inefficient use of public resources, with the lowest expenditure per capita as a share of GDP in the EU. As a result, the quality of hospital infrastructure is below the level of the other EU Member States, leading to a lack of performing medical equipment as well as poor spatialisation. That is why investment in health, in improving hospital infrastructure, must be supported and encouraged. In addition to the many important considerations that contribute to improving the health of the population, the conditions of the hospital units in which patients are treated are of major importance. The implementation of the project will lead to an increase of the hospital’s capacity for frosting and treatment, at an appropriate level, of cases of COVID-19 infection, in particular in the field of intensive therapy, investments in electrical infrastructure, ventilation and air treatment and medical fluid infrastructure will enable the prompt and efficient response of the medical system to situations of pandemic crisis, such as this one, generated by the COVID-19 virus, which contributes to the achievement of the achievement indicator 2S130 — Public entities equipped/supported to manage the COVID-19 health crisis. By making the investment, it contributes to the development of the capacity of the
