The article highlights the level of interest and motivation of students with different levels of health of students during physical education classes. The influence of various factors on the attitude of students to a physically active, healthy lifestyle has been studied. The study of motives that enhance the desire of student youth to regular physical education and sports is one of the important pedagogical problems in physical education, as motives are crucial in behavior and stimulation of active activities. Due to the low motivation to engage in physical education among modern student youth, there is a need to find ways to increase this motivation and highlight the experience of its implementation in the educational process of the medical university, which determines the relevance of our study. The aim of the study is to study the mechanisms of personal health of students of medical institutions of higher education and ways to strengthen and preserve it through physical self-improvement with the use of health technologies, which is vital for professional development of students in distance learning. Data from a questionnaire survey of students of 1-2 courses of medical, dental and pharmaceutical faculties of Donetsk National Medical University aged 17-23 years to different types, forms and means of physical activity in free time were used. The proposed algorithm for compiling a preventive and health program for the development of health of EG students contributed to their physical self-improvement, which was reflected in the state of functional systems of the body, resulting in significant changes in personal health. Thus, the obtained data revealed a positive trend: the high level of health of future professionals increased by 5.5%, above the average by 14.5%, and the average by 8.9%. The low and below average health levels of the subjects decreased by 10.0% and 18.9%, respectively. Involving students in physical education classes is an integral part of overall development, an important factor in strengthening all aspects of health. In turn, the study of the mechanisms of personal health of students of higher medical institutions and ways to preserve it, based on physical self-improvement with the use of health technologies, will increase students' motivation to exercise, which will positively affect their emotional and physical health. During the study it was found that the formation of a healthy lifestyle of students of higher medical education is a process of acquiring knowledge, skills, abilities about a healthy lifestyle, which provides the foundation of physical, spiritual well-being and success in professional activities; the formation of a stable motivation for caring for their own health and physical training, development of physical and mental qualities, creative use of physical culture, to ensure high efficiency and creative longevity, the ability to work professionally without psychological costs for successful professional activity in the chosen specialty. conditions of distance learning.

Abstract: Today, the older generation is the fastest growing population in the world. At the same time, older people represent a significant labor resource. With the increase in the retirement age, the question of developing measures to preserve and strengthen the professional health of workers is becoming acute. Objective of the study: to assess the gender characteristics of the level of health and the prevalence of behavioral risk factors for the lifestyle of teachers of a medical university of pre-retirement and retirement age in order to develop measures to preserve the working capacity and professional qualifications of this contingent of workers. The study involved 169 teachers of a medical university aged 55-70 years. A complex of anthropometric measurements, blood pressure assessment was carried out. With the help of the author's questionnaire, behavioral health risk factors were studied. The assessment of the incidence rate was carried out based on the results of periodic medical examination of employees. Significant differences were revealed in most indicators of morpho-functional status, representing the risk of developing diseases of the cardiovascular system in male teachers compared with female teachers. Male teachers are characterized by a high prevalence of behavioral risks and a low degree of implementation of the principles of a healthy lifestyle, which generally determines an increased risk of chronic non-communicable diseases. Analysis of the gender characteristics of chronic pathology showed that at the time of the medical examination, more chronic diseases were revealed among women. Among men, deviations in laboratory tests were significantly more often detected and at the same time they did not go to doctors with symptoms that were associated with these changes, in contrast to women who undergo the necessary therapy prescribed by a doctor.

The article considers some aspects of clinical communication between a doctor and a patient. The doctor’s profession inherently faces an indispensable requirement to possess a high level of communicative competence, because whatever the development of medical science and technology, the real help to patients is provided by a doctor. In this regard, various aspects of communication between doctors and patients are constantly in the focus of interest in natural and humanitarian spheres of research, as evidenced by numerous scientific studies of domestic and foreign scientists. The research is interdisciplinary and covers a range of issues related to medical psychology and medical pedagogy, medical ethics and deontology, sociology and sociolinguistics. The authors emphasize that in a patient-centered approach, the skills of clinical communication belong to basic clinical abilities, which minimize factors that can negatively affect the doctor’s success, promoting patient satisfaction with medical care and improving their psycho-emotional state, patient compliance, increasing the effectiveness of diagnosis, treatment, disease prevention, and palliative care. It is observed that the skills of clinical communication are complex and are manifested by the ability to choose appropriate tactics of communication with patients and their relatives, to create a trusting atmosphere and a comfortable psychological environment for the patient; possession of nonverbal and paraverbal components of communication; the ability to conduct educational work with the patient to maintain a healthy lifestyle and give up bad habits; the ability to maintain and encourage patient’s autonomy, prove information about possible complications; persuade the patient to comply; the ability to avoid conflicts or act adequately in a conflict situation with patients. The conclusions state that the skills of clinical communication should be formed from the first steps at a medical university, consolidating them during the entire period of study at the undergraduate and postgraduate stages, as well as refining them in the future through non-formal and informal education.
