The paper determines the foundation of formation of a touristic recreational potential of Lviv region. Main contributing factors of development of the tourism industry of the region are investigated. It is established that the largest reserves of recreational resources are located in Drohobych, Zhovkva, Pustomyty, Sokal and Stryj districts. Small amounts of resources are concentrated in Brody, Zhidachiv, Kamenka-Buzka, Mykolayiv, Peremyshlyansk, Radekhiv, Sambir and Turka districts. Tourist routes of Lviv region were estimated. In particular, the most promising ones were evaluated, including the Golden Ring of the Boykivshchyna, the Russky Path – the old way through the Carpathians, Makivka – the mountain of the immortal glory of the Ukrainian Sich Riflemen. The correlation-regression relationship between the indicators forming the tourist flows and the main components of the tourism development of the studied region was determined. The level and intensity of current usage of the potential of the region were estimated. SWOT-analysis of touristic and recreational potential of the region was carried out. The study of a touristic and recreational sector of Lviv region has made it possible to establish that its development depends primarily on the advantageous geographical location of the region, rich natural-resource and historical and cultural potential, and the development of touristic and recreational infrastructure. It was established that the region has all the necessary preconditions for the long-term development of cultural-cognitive, scientific-educational, religious, medical, hunting, ecological, business, sports and excursion types of the tourism industry. Particularly important and promising is the development of rural (green) tourism in the region. The development of touristic and recreational sphere of Lviv oblast depends, first and foremost, on the rational use of natural and cultural-historical resources, the reconstruction of sanatoriums and resorts, recreational and touristic establishments, the creation of material and technical base for the development of touristic and recreational industry, promotion of investment attraction, distribution of touristic product on the domestic and world markets and strengthening of international cooperation in the field of tourism and recreation.

In Lviv region, the development of the recreational sphere is a strategic landmark. Natural recreational resources of Lviv region and the largest in Ukraine in number, diversity and degree of preservation of historical and cultural resources have led to significant development of the industry. However, the territory of the region is characterized by varying degrees of development of recreational resources and development of recreational potential. The level and intensity of the current use of the potential of recreational resources of Stryi district are estimated. Due to the favorable geographical location, favorable climatic resources, a significant number and diversity of historical and cultural recreational resources, Stryi district has significant potential for the development of recreation. One of the main components of therapeutic recreation is the availability of natural therapeutic recreational resources – mineral waters and therapeutic mud – in the area. Morshyn has the largest number of mineral water sources, which are characterized by high sulfate content. 21 objects of the nature reserve fund have been created on the territory of the district, which has a high value for the organization of recreational activities and allows to consider them as the most important component of natural recreational resources. The potential of recreational resources of Stryi district is determined, which is 0.46 and corresponds to the average attractive level. Separate recreation centers have been formed within the district. This is, first of all, the city of Stryi, which has a significant number of historical and cultural resources, the city of Morshyn – as a center of medical and recreational recreation. The proximity to these cities of protected areas increases their recreational potential. Threats to further recreational use of nature are a significant anthropogenic load on the environment, irrational use of natural recreational resources and low investment activity in the development of the industry. Priorities for the development of recreational activities are the identification and use of new types of recreation, unique features of individual territories, popularization of their historical and ethnographic features, increasing the share of objects of will, in particular national importance.

Abstract Introduction In 2019/2020, the Pharmacy Integration Fund commissioned delivery of cross-sector pre-registration pharmacist training incorporating 3–6 month placements in general practice (GP). GP placements were managed by Health Education England (HEE) and organised as one (or more) blocks, or as spilt weeks/days across base sector (hospital/community) and GP. Trainees had a pharmacist tutor at base and in GP. Aim to evaluate the implementation of cross-sector pre-registration pharmacy placements in GP in England, and to identify barriers and enablers of a successful placement. Methods A qualitative approach was taken, with case study sites purposively sampled for maximum variation: pharmacy base (hospital/community), number of pre-registration pharmacist trainees in base doing GP placement, length of GP placement, organisation of GP placement and geographical location. With consent, trainees and tutors identified as meeting sampling criteria were emailed invitation letters and participant information sheets. Where the trainee and their tutor(s) agreed to participate, semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted January - July 2020. Questions developed from literature(1, 2) and the HEE handbook were tailored to understanding trainees’ and tutors’ views on the implementation of pre-registration pharmacist placements in GP, including benefits, unintended consequences and impacts. Thematic analysis across sites was undertaken with a focus on exploring inter and intra group themes. Results Thirty-four interviews were completed in 11 study sites (5 GP/hospital; 6 GP/community pharmacy). Trainees and tutors considered GP placements had been successful. Contributing factors were: placement planning (induction, contingency arrangements for cover should GP tutor be unavailable); tutors working together (good communication and collaboration); GP tutor support (regular contact, reflection; identifying learning needs; opportunities for learning); integration of GP placements within training year (specific learning/training activities at base during GP placement); and GP tutors having backing of their organisation to supervise effectively. A lack of these impacted negatively. Trainees completed a wide spectrum of activities and gradually moved from administrative to clinical tasks. They built up confidence to undertake patient-facing activities, with more direct supervision at the beginning moving to indirect supervision using debriefing. Thirteen weeks in GP was considered an appropriate minimum duration by all trainees and tutors; those based in community felt that 26 weeks in GP provided more opportunities for clinical and consultation skills learning. Cross-sector experience facilitated a better understanding of patient pathways and the importance of holistic patient care. All trainees considered working in GP in future but highlighted the lack of a cross-sector GP foundation programme. Base tutors felt the time commitment was comparable to single sector placements. Base and GP tutors felt that a clear set of competencies for GP placements and a broader governance framework would ensure standards and consistency. Conclusion This is the first national evaluation of cross-sector pre-registration pharmacists in general practice placements in England. Sampling as case studies enabled data triangulation and generated a multi-faceted understanding on factors impacting GP placements. A key limitation was the volunteer bias associated with recruitment. Key attributes of a successful pre-registration cross-sector training experience are highlighted and can inform policy reforms including change from pre-registration to foundation year training.

Important issues in the development of regional tourism are the provision of tourist services, formation of the market of services and infrastructure improvement. The creation of clusters in the tourism sector remains relevant. From the standpoint of geographical science, the formation of tourist clusters is quite studied. The tourist potential of Khmelnytskyi region first of all includes the objects of nature reserve and historical-cultural funds available in the regional territory, which have not been involved in tourist activity yet. They are the basis for the formation of new tourist attractions, which can be used for the development of rural tourism, job creation, finding sources of income for newly formed territorial communities in order to obtain a positive effect from their formation. It is established that the synergetic effect promotes the creation of clusters with similar specialization. Determining the prospects of the tourist cluster of Khmelnytskyi region, special attention should be paid to such a form of tourism as rural (green) tourism. Extensive implementation of green tourism in the practice of newly formed united territorial communities in the region will provide additional resources to enhance their socio-economic development. Especially relevant tourist and recreational activities are in the buffer zones of national nature parks and landscape Regional Park, which are located in the Khmelnytskyi region. It is described that the material and technical base of tourism consists of: temporary accommodation facilities; specialized transport companies; tourist and excursion institutions and their subdivisions; information and advertising services; enterprises for the production and sale of tourist goods. Social infrastructure is also important for the organization of high-quality recreation for tourists: the availability of housing and communal services, cultural and household services, health care, and trade. From the standpoint of traditional economic and geographical complex formation, all factors of tourist complexes are divided into two major groups: socio-economic (labor, transport, trade and catering, souvenirs, city tourist development) and natural (geographical location, nature surface area, air temperature) etc. Many scholars, as the main social factors in the development of the tourist complex distinguish: socio-cultural: cultural-historical (architectural-historical) resources, settlement, administrative-territorial division; production and economic: labor resources, the structure of the city's economy, sources of environmental pollution, transport, land resources. Analysis of the location of these factors from the standpoint of social geography will justify measures aimed at enhancing the development of tourism in the regional tourism complex. Mass tourism is possible only if the needs of travelers in food and accommodation are met. Relevant facilities should have a range of hygiene and waste disposal facilities for tourists. Therefore, it is important, especially in rural areas, to provide in the plans of socio-economic development and general schemes of rural development places for temporary stay of tourists, appropriate infrastructure facilities, to reserve land for their arrangement. The analysis of the possibilities of Khmelnytskyi region in the tourist market of Ukraine showed that it occupies the middle places. This is due to the transit transport and geographical location. Within this region there is a clear polarization of tourism development, which determines the spatial features of the regional tourist complex development. Key words: tourist cluster, Khmelnytskyi region, green tourism, socio-economic development of the region.
