FORMATION OF STUDENTS’ READINESS FOR PRE-MEDICAL RESPONSE IN HIGH-RISK CONDITIONS

Abstract

The article examines the issue of forming students’ readiness for pre-medical response in high-risk conditions on the example of law enforcement activity. The relevance of the study is determined by the need to improve the effectiveness of training future specialists capable of acting in conditions associated with risks to human life and health. It is substantiated that the effectiveness of providing pre-medical care depends not only on the knowledge of action algorithms but also on the ability to perform them under conditions of physical fatigue, psycho-emotional stress, and time pressure. It is established that traditional training of students is mainly carried out in relatively stable and controlled conditions, which do not fully correspond to real operational situations. In practice, law enforcement activity is associated with significant physical exertion, uncertainty, a high level of responsibility, and the need for rapid decision-making, which directly affects the quality and timeliness of pre-medical actions. Under such conditions, even well-learned algorithms may be performed with errors due to the influence of fatigue, stress, and limited time resources. The study substantiates the expediency of integrating physical training with the practice of pre-medical skills, as well as the use of scenario-based simulation of high-risk situations in the educational process. It is determined that such an approach contributes to the formation of stable practical skills, improves the accuracy and coordination of actions under fatigue, enhances psychological resilience, and ensures readiness for effective action in complex and unpredictable conditions. The results obtained confirm the effectiveness of an integrated approach aimed at preparing students for professional activity in high-risk environments and the need for further improvement of training methods based on modeling real-life situations.
