The paper considers building of social and environmental competence of future technical specialists. It shows that health care competence building is becoming more pressing issue each year. Behavioral patterns are formed in the process of training, upbringing and observing people around. They allow forming the ability or readiness to use the acquired interdisciplinary knowledge in professional activities related to health, safety of human life, as well as in the process of studying such disciplines as the “Elective Courses on Physical Education and Sports” and “Physical Education and Sports”. The patterns offer the possibility to develop a behavioral socio-ecological algorithm efficiently. In pedagogy and didactic processes, mathematical modeling is aimed at clarifying phenomena that are not amenable to experiment or unobservable as well as patterns of education for the development of efficient teaching technologies. The paper considers mathematical descriptions of the models for formation, interaction and efficiency of various target groups exemplified by Nordic walking, indoor soccer and interdisciplinary teams. It shows the dependence of student group population on an activity and quantitative composition of potential participants of sports group. This mathematical model is also applicable for building socioecological competence of future technical specialists in the framework of participation in interdisciplinary projects, research activities, Olympiads, social and environmental events that contribute to the assimilation of socio-ecological patterns of behavior, the condition for the development of which is the unity of cognitive and practical activities in the process of studying at the university. The paper includes the interim experiment results.

Purpose. Disclosure of the peculiarities of the organization of modern training of university students with a risky perception of reality in order to form basic competencies for future professional activities.Methods. As part of the study, the following were used: the systematization method, the structural analysis method and the numeric rating method.Results. The peculiarities of riskology training in the construction of an individual educational route are determined, in which the possibility of students independently choosing disciplines to realize their own interests in various fields of knowledge is used. Methods of obtaining risk identification skills from trainees are formulated. It is determined that using the intuitive method of risk formalization is the most accessible and expeditious way to remember the possibility of risks. The need to develop a sustainable habit of assessing risks in the future and in fact is justified. This skill is successfully developed using a numeric rating method. The need to develop an internal rating scale for each student is justified, which is useful for making decisions. Disclosed is a method of assimilating risk analysis skills in dynamics. This allows you to identify the development of forecast estimates in comparison with the fact for each individual risk and compile several risks.Conclusion. An educational experiment on the introduction of the Riskology discipline for students ofTyumenStateUniversity suggests that they have successfully overcome the stage of high risk of perception of reality that arose during the COVID-19 pandemic. The acquired knowledge and practical skills will ensure a similar perception of other events in their lives and professional activities. It is necessary to fully expand such practices and find an opportunity to supplement educational programs in universities, regardless of their orientation, with disciplines that directly reveal the nature of risk in human life and give them the ability to manage them.

Clear Vision

Purpose: Primary health care (PHC) reform, especially efforts to implement interdisciplinary teams, has implications for dietetic practice. A consistent, clear vision of the registered dietitian’s (RD’s) role in PHC is needed to develop a successful advocacy agenda. Methods: The Dietitians of Canada (DC) Central and Southern Ontario Primary Health Care Action Group organized a four-step process to engage dietitians in developing an advocacy agenda for RD PHC services in Ontario. Two facilitated workshops brought together dietitian opinion leaders to enhance the understanding of current roles, find common ground, and develop a shared vision. All DC members were invited to review the draft vision, and feedback was integrated into a revised vision. Results: Registered dietitians saw PHC reform through many lenses, and were uncertain about how reforms would affect their practices. In a national review, the majority of reviewers (approximately 85% of 270) supported the draft vision; additional clarity was needed on resources and the breadth of services that RDs would provide. Conclusion: Development of a PHC vision for RDs should be helpful in advocating for dietitian services in PHC.

On the basis of the archetypic analysis of development trends of a conflictological paradigm the author’s model of minimization of conflict potential in modern society is offered. Institutional construction is the basis for model that is harmonized with a factor of societal identity.It is noted that the problems of social conflicts, according to data from monitor- ing studies of the Ukrainian school of archetype, are increasingly shifted into the sphere of interpersonal relations. It is stimulated by the progression in society of so-called self-sufficient personalities, the “subjectification” of the social space, and at the same time narrowing down to the solution of entirely specific situations in which there is a collision of the interests of two or more parties.Instead, in order to find the optimal solution for resolving the conflict, it is necessary to have interdisciplinary knowledge, in particular understanding of the deep nature of such conflicts. Collision of points of view, thoughts, positions — a very frequent phenomenon of modern social life. In order to develop the correct line of behavior in various conflict situations, it is important to adequately under- stand the nature of the emergence of the modern conflict and the mechanisms for resolving them in substance. Knowledge of conflict nature enriches the culture of communication and makes human life and social groups not only more calm, but also creates conditions for constructive development. It is proved that in modern life one can not but agree with the statement that an individual carries first re- sponsibility for his own life and only then for the life of the social groups to which he belongs. And while making decisions within the framework of modern mecha- nisms (consensus), the properties of human psychology such as extroversion, emo- tionality, irrationality, intuition, externality, and executive ability will not at least contribute to such a task.That is why in the author’s research attracted attention to the archetypal na- ture of the conflict — the primitive images, ideas, feelings inherent in man as a bearer of the collective unconscious.

Practical Implications

Coronavirus disease 2019 is a respiratory infection that has evolved to a pandemic with an enormous burden both on human life and health care. States throughout the world have pursued strategies to restrict the transmission of the virus in the community. Health systems have a crucial dual role as they are at the frontline of the fight against the pathogen and at the same time they must continue to offer emergency and routine health services. The provision of health care in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic finds certain barriers. The simultaneous protection of both universal health coverage and health care efficiency is a difficult task due to conflicting challenges of these two goals. Key actions need to be decided and implemented in the fields of health policy, operation of health services, and clinical interaction between health personnel and patients, so that health care continues to perform its mission in a sustainable manner. As the scientific community prepares for the widespread production and application of effective protective and therapeutic agents against COVID-19, it is vital for the general population to remain safe and for the health systems to survive. Allocation of resources and priority setting need to be applied fairly and efficiently for the achievement of the maximum benefit.

Initial Results

Introduction: Few months after the COVID-19 pandemic burst, many aspects of the human life, including education, dramatically changed. Because of the lockdown measures taken to limit the virus spread in Italy, in-person teaching and learning have been interrupted in all health care disciplines and readapted in virtual formulae. Methods: As academic ophthalmology departments, we had to maintain the educational needs of medical and orthoptic students, internships, surgical training of residents, as well as to cover the scientific update of health care personnel (HCPs), and the continuation of research and academic activities. To assure these needs we ideated an educational strategy and a team, which was then translated on a multichannel virtual platform created with Microsoft Teams. Results: In this platform there were 21 channels organized in a public view mode, open to all Team members, or in private view mode to separate non-permanent HCPs, internships, residents, and students’ tasks, from permanent HCPs tasks. Virtual channels were dedicated to provide theoretical lessons, clinical cases, surgical video, internal meetings and webinar, to offer news from scientific societies, requests of appointments from biomedical companies, links with ophthalmological websites, to move forward research projects, to participate at institutional academic duties, and to obtain feedbacks from users. Residents continued their training on surgery using a surgical simulator, after consulting an agenda uploaded into the dedicated virtual channel. Conclusion: These positive initial results should represent a boost to rapidly proceed with the development of even more versatile virtual learning solutions, given that the forecasts for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic are not encouraging.

Palliative care and hospice, while distinct programs, are quite often given to the same individuals. The complexities of achieving goal-oriented care often lead to utilitarian ethics in health care, particularly as societal respect for human life and dignity weakens. This article examines these complexities with a particular emphasis on ensuring personalized care from physicians who know the goals of the patient.
