The aim: The research is devoted to the analysis of theoretical and empirical determinants of formation of structural components of an active life position of modern elderly people. Materials and methods: Psychodiagnostic techniques were selected as tools for data collection. Experiment participants were people aged 65-72 years old (total number – 78 people). Data processing was done by means of the computer program SPSS 21.0. Results: The psychological features of the formation of elderly people’s active life position were determined by the fact that more than 50% of respondents had an average level of cognitive development, more than 60% demonstrated a low level of emotional-volitional component and more than 50% were at medium level of motivational-behavioural component. Most respondents’ high level of cognitive component development does not correlate with a high level of emotional-volitional component development. The leading role in the formation of elderly people’s active life position is played by the motivational-behavioural component. Conclusions: Based on the theoretical and empirical research of the issue of formation of elderly people’s active life position, three structural components of the phenomenon under study were identified: cognitive, emotional-volitional and motivational-behavioural. The results of the experiment suggest that most respondents had medium-low levels of active life position. The main determinant of the elderly people’s reduced vitality is their low level of emotional-volitional component development. The research outcomes allowed us to track the dependence of the level of active life position on the motivational-behavioral component.
In today's world, the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) has become much more relevant because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The consequences of quarantine restrictions have sharpened the problems connected with the education and upbringing of preschoolers with special educational needs (SEN), who needed to establish an effective intercommunion of parents with specialists through ICT. The authors' aim was to clarify the theoretical basis of the research problem and to determine the ethical aspects of the ICT usage in communication with parents of preschoolers with SEN. Based on the methods of analysis, synthesis and generalization, the authors presented a theoretical review of the feasibility of ICT in the process of working with preschoolers, outlined the specifics for children with SEN, and established the role of ICT in cooperation of teachers with parents of preschoolers in preschool educational institutions (PEI). Empirical material was collected using the method of written survey (questionnaire) of parents. The research group consisted of parents of preschoolers with SEN (n=124) from four PEIs inUkraine. The results testified to the existing problems and difficulties that parents face in the process of communication through ICT. The key and additional ethical aspects of the use of ICT in communication between teachers and parents are identified, which not only raises knowledge about information content, but also produces a friendly attitude between all participants, aimed at compliance with socio-ethical norms of behaviour, respect and mutual trust.

У статті розкрито особливості організації соціальної роботи в дитячих лікарнях Чеської Республіки, визначені її авторами під час академічної мобільності до Остравського університету в межах програми Erasmus+ КА1 в 2022 році. Соціальні працівники Чеської Республіки є частиною процесу забезпечення якості медичного обслуговування в закладах охорони здоров’я. На сучасному етапі простежується відсутність налагодженої соціальної роботи в закладах охорони здоров’я Чеської Республіки, яка необхідна для успішного досягнення її цілей. Соціальні працівники почуваються ізольованими від колег, які працюють як в інших закладах охорони здоров’я, так і в соціальній сфері в цілому. У практиці соціальних працівників в організаціях довгострокової охорони здоров’я спостерігається нестача методології, яка могла б слугувати інструментом моніторингу та оцінки якості наданої соціальним працівником послуги. Автори статті визначили основні напрями та зміст роботи фахівців із соціальної роботи Центру супроводу відділення педіатрії Університетської лікарні міста Острави (Чеська Республіка) з батьками дітей-пацієнтів, сім`ями, які опинились у складних життєвих обставинах у зв`язку з хворобою дитини. Також вони звертають увагу на міждисциплінарну взаємодію фахівців лікарні у ведені випадку дитини-пацієнта та її батьків. Авторами використано контент-аналіз документів Центру супроводу відділення педіатрії Університетської лікарні міста Острави, інтерв’ю з експертами, спостереження за діяльністю фахівців закладу. Спеціалісти Центру супроводу відділення педіатрії Університетської лікарні міста Острави супроводжують пацієнтів на таких етапах: в період очікування діагнозу; при повідомленні діагнозу; незабаром після встановлення діагнозу; коли стан здоров’я дитини змінюється; під час госпіталізації хворого; під час операбельних процедур пацієнта у педіатричному відділені; під час індивідуальних обстежень (нейро, кардіо, генетика, гастро та ін.); при спілкуванні з педіатром; при спілкуванні з фахівцями; у наданні допомоги, оплачуваної медичною страховою компанією або державною сферою; у забезпеченні підтримки від фондів та ендавмент-фондів; при ознайомленні з пацієнтською організацією; при налагодженні співпраці з доглядовими службами (ранній догляд, паліативна підтримка). У статті зроблено наголос на важливості соціальної роботи в як у закладах охорони здоров`я в цілому, так і зокрема – у дитячих лікарнях, як запобіжнику зростання вразливості, недопущення кризовості сім`ї та допомоги у подоланні складних життєвих обставин.
