Üldinfo

My experiences have given me the opportunity to analyse the challenges in Estonia, and the solutions to overcome these. I am particularly invested in health care and social issues, as well as the ethical aspects in all fields.
It is hard for me to look the people who suffer from medical problems in the eye after having read the OECD report on the shortcomings of the Estonian health care system, which have caused our preventable mortality multipliers to soar above the EU average.
Estonian health care needs systematic strategy solutions. The future of our people depends on it.
