The relevance of the article is that the social security of employees of the National Police of Ukraine is not only a system of special, legally defined legal guarantees, but a set of mechanisms for their practical implementation. Medical care, as an important part of state support for the professional activity of police officers, is activated through various institutional levers, but, most importantly, the latter is the prerogative of the activities of specially authorized entities. The article, based on the analysis of the current legislation, presents the whole array of participants in legal relations arising in the field of medical care for employees of the National Police of Ukraine. The specifics of their functions, powers and tasks are analyzed. The subjects of medical care of policemen are classified with their division into three groups: central subjects; coordinating or intermediate subjects of medical care; target entities. The affiliation of health care facilities to the third classification group is substantiated. It was found that the subjects of medical care for police officers are a set of public authorities and their officials who are entrusted with special rights, responsibilities, tasks and functions in the field of organization, provision and implementation of medical care for police officers. It is determined that the central subjects of medical care for police officers - the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the President of Ukraine - are the main active bodies, which are the highest representatives of state power in our country. In the field of medical care for police officers, these entities: first, are responsible for the formation of legislation in the field of the National Police, as well as social guarantees for its employees; secondly, form a health policy that sets standards for health care for the population, including the police; thirdly, determine the priority ways of development of the health care and medical care sector; fourth, monitor the implementation of national policies in the field of health and medical care.

The study deals with the administrative and legal principles of the system of health care facilities at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which are an element of medical care for employees of the National Police of Ukraine. It is noted that medical care for police officers is a component of such a common phenomenon as social security for law enforcement officers. It is noted that in the scientific work of researchers call social security also social protection, but the content of these definitions remains the same. It is emphasized that medical care is not limited to the system of medical measures carried out by the health authorities at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it also includes the activities of governing bodies and departments of internal affairs, aimed at health or preventive measures among the staff and the elimination of harmful and health factors, and the Department of Health and Rehabilitation is implementing the state policy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the field of departmental health care. The definition of medical support of law enforcement agencies as a set of organizational, highly qualified forms and methods of medical care, logistics of treatment and prevention, sanitary and epidemiological and other measures, and social security of police is defined as a set of guarantees and legal norms that regulate the activities of police at the expense of the State in matters of social and material security of police in cases of disability, disability, retirement, detection of diseases related to professional duties or other circumstances, which are provided by special laws. The study provides a system of health care facilities at the Ministry of Internal Affairs according to the List of health care facilities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine approved by the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (treatment and prevention facilities, sanitary prevention facilities, pharmaceutical facilities, medical commissions MIA).

Influenza mandates in health care institutions are recommended by professional associations as an effective way to prevent the contraction of influenza by patients from health care workers. Health care institutions with such mandates must operate within civil rights frameworks. A recent set of cases against health care institutions with influenza mandates reveals the liabilities posed by federal law that protects employees from religious discrimination. This article examines this legal framework and draws important lessons from this litigation for health care institutions. We argue counterintuitively that providing religious exemptions from influenza mandates may expose health care institutions to more liability than not providing a formal exemption.

Abstract Purpose of the study. Investigate the current legal mechanisms for organizing and providing rehabilitation assistance to participants and victims of the armed conflict in the eastern regions of Ukraine. Materials and methods. To achieve these goals, a standard methodological apparatus for scientific research was used: bibliosemantic, for the analysis of periodical literature, and content analysis, for the analysis of legal documents. Results. As stated in the regulations, one of the main responsibilities of the state is to ensure the social protection of participants in the armed conflict in the east of the country. To fulfill this function, a number of laws and regulations have been enacted at the legislative levels, which are constantly being revised to improve social, medical and psychological care for participants in the joint force operation (anti-terrorist operation) and its victims. Comprehensive assistance to disabled military personnel and combatants includes statutory guarantees and procedures for their rehabilitation and adaptation. This list includes medical rehabilitation (provision of medical care, including prosthetics and orthoses, provision of technical means of rehabilitation); psychological rehabilitation; social rehabilitation; vocational rehabilitation. Conclusions. In Ukraine, there is a welldeveloped legal regulation of the process of providing rehabilitation assistance to participants in the armed conflict in the eastern regions of Ukraine. Organizational mechanisms for rehabilitation are constantly being improved: the International Classification of Functioning, Restriction of Life has been introduced; qualification characteristics of rehabilitologists and rehabilitation specialists, occupational therapists, physical therapy assistants and occupational therapists have been developed. It has been established that there are no unified protocols for medical rehabilitation in Ukraine: only a protocol of measures for post-traumatic stress disorder has been developed. A «road map» for medical care, reparative treatment and rehabilitation measures in health care facilities is available and applicable. Keywords: medical rehabilitation, joint force operation, legal regulation, organization of medical care.

This article gives an overview of medical rehabilitation in the Netherlands. It shows that Dutch rehabilitation is based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and organized in three different levels: rehabilitation medicine, geriatric rehabilitation, and monodisciplinary therapy. The author describes these three levels in their distinctive scopes and numbers. Together they operate as a coherent rehabilitation service system that reflects an important characteristic of the system of health care in the Netherlands: decentralized if possible and centralized if necessary. The system is accessible for all and it is organized in a way that simple medical problems can be dealt with close to home, whereas specialized treatment is concentrated in rehabilitation centers spread over the country. The rehabilitation facilities are embedded in the general health care system: it is easy for hospitals as well as general practitioners to refer patients to rehabilitation. In conclusion, the possibilities of further improving the system of medical rehabilitation and the application of Dutch experience in other countries are considered.

Reserarch question: This paper investigates whether motivational factors have influence on the work of employees in health care organizations of Serbia and what factors affect employees. Motivation: Motivation and job satisfaction among different groups of workers in health care facilities in Serbia are an important issue. This study’s purpose is to assist health managers in their efforts to fulfill individual and organizational targets by highlighting the most preferred motivational factors among the employees. With good leadership and with the building of good motivational system the organization can increase its value and competitiveness. It has been shown that employees are more motivated and work under less stress if there is a support from their leader or manager (Jensen, 2010). Idea: The  core  idea  of  this  paper  is to  evaluate  the  relationship  between motivational factors and work of employees in health care institutions in Serbia. The central hypothesis of this study is what the managers within health care institutions have to do to improve motivation as well as their abilities for the fulfillment of both individual’s and organization’s needs. Data: The cross-sectional study included 217 physicians, nurses, technicians, health associates and non-medical staff in 21 facilities of primary, secondary and tertiary levels in Pozarevac, Belgrade, Nis, Pirot, Novi Sad, Zrenjanin, Krusevac, Varvarin and Novi Pazar. Tools: The research instrument was a questionnaire with questions regarding socio-demographic characteristics, participants’ characteristics and motivational factors. The data were analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistics. Findings: The most important motivational factors are: salary, good interpersonal relationships and team work, contribution to population’s health and patient’s satisfaction. Around 10% of the participants thought that work could be done well even without motivational factors’ presence. Employees from the areas outside Belgrade rated job security higher in comparison with employees from Belgrade. A study conducted at the University of llorin Teaching Hospital in 2011 showed that salary was the most important motivational factor, followed by job security (Ojokuku& Salami, 2011). Contribution: Salary is an important motivational factor for employees in health care facilities in Serbia. Managers should work on the improvement of motivational factors through acknowledgement of needs of individual employees as well as through involving employees into decision making.

Health is the greatest social and individual value, a priority criterion of socio-economic development of the country, and alsolargely determines the state of social well-being of citizens. The creation of departmental medicine in the system of the Ministry ofInternal Affairs was due to the need to perform a number of special tasks, including: medical and psychophysiological examination,medical support of operational and service activities of employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. It should also be notedthat medical relations exist not only in the sphere of activity of health care institutions subordinated to the Ministry of Health ofUkraine, but also departmental ones, in particular those within the sphere of management of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine.Such facilities provide medical services to the appropriate categories of persons who have the right to be served in them, including thepolice. The activities of bodies and units of the National Police to generate their own revenues are not only a socially oriented way toattract additional financial resources to ensure the effective implementation of these units of state functions, but also solves a numberof current issues of social protection of police: the state must create conditions providing police. At the present stage of state formation,according to the current legislation, there is a network of departmental health care facilities, which are maintained at the expense ofbudget funds. Such a network includes, along with clinics and hospitals, and health facilities (boarding houses, medical rehabilitationcenters, recreation centers, etc.), cultural and sports organizations. In this context, the social protection of police officers should be consideredin a broad sense, including a number of important components that are directly related to the provision of money. The issue ofthe widespread perception of social protection includes health care, as the provision of the latter undoubtedly allows to obtain a pronouncedsocial effect. Medical support of police officers has a clear social orientation, this is what the functioning of departmentalmedi cine of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine is aimed at.
