Our mission is to facilitate internationalization for both Red Cross schools in Lisbon and up North in Oliveira de Azeméis. The school has programs running in Nursing, Physiotherapy, Cardiopneumology and Radiography.

We arrange a number of international activities for the people within the Red Cross and for guests interested in our work and the Portuguese health system.

We work closely together with Universities from all over Europe and beyond. We create intensive programs, courses, exchanges and are active members of educational networks such as ENPHE and COHEHRE.

For incoming students we have in 2010 two main activities:

• Erasmus exchange
• International course Inter-professional  health promotion and care in the light of COPD.

The international office invites you to contact us with your questions. We are there for you to explore possibilities for any international experience related to our schools. We value your interest and we are proud of our high level of education and hospitality. Find out yourself and contact our international coordinator directly: pbeenen@esscvp.eu
