STANDARDS OF CONDUCT WITHIN THE ESPR MEMBERSHIP

The overall mission of ESPR is that all children should have optimal health and well-being and are valued by our society. To achieve this goal, ESPR expects that all society members practice the highest quality of health care and use the best available diagnostic equipment and therapeutic interventions to promote the well-being of our young patients.

ESPR recognizes that its international membership consists of a broad and diverse community. Therefore, our goal is to establish strong connections, expand our perspectives, and promote unlimited collaboration among all members wherever they practice. All of these efforts are dedicated to benefiting our patients, who deserve the best available treatment, delivered with the utmost respect. With sincere passion, we truly value, and promote diversity and inclusiveness amongst all the individuals, groups, and vendors with whom we interact, collaborate, and share partnership.

ESPR fosters a working environment that embraces and celebrates diversity, promotes inclusiveness, and treats all individuals with dignity and respect. During all of its activities, the ESPR family expects that the working environment remains free from all forms of harassment, intimidation, hostility, or other offensive behaviour. Every member is expected to treat others with respect and professionalism, adhering to generally acceptable social behaviours. Any inappropriate actions will not be tolerated.

If a member believes that they or another member has potentially been subject to any form of harassment during one of our meetings/courses, they should report the alleged misconduct to the current society president. The president will then work in conjunction with the trustees to examine the case and provide guidance to the member and all involved parties. Strictest confidentiality will be protected to the greatest extent possible.

VISAS FOR ROMANIA

Romania is a partial member of the Schengen free travel space, so arriving from these countries will be free of ID control if you travel by plane or by ship. For traveling by road or railway one has still to be verified at the border checkpoint.

The citizens of the EU, of most European countries and of some other countries are allowed to enter in Romania, for short stays, without a Visa and in many cases with the national ID card (no Passport needed). Please inform yourself beforehand (and apply for a visa if necessary) HERE! 

In case you need an invitation for getting the visa, send a request to contact@radiologie-pediatrica.ro and provide a copy of your Passport and the Post Address (if you need a paper-printed invitation)! Please register at the congress beforehand (fee payment is not necessary at this stage).

HEALTH SERVICES AND INSURANCE

Citizens of the EU and of countries that have signed reciprocity agreements with Romania, receive free emergency medical services, similarly to Romanian citizens. An European health card is requested. One can buy a private travel health insurance (may be easier than getting the European card and may offer also extra coverage).

A travel and Congress cancellation insurance may be a safe option.
