The main objective of this article is to demonstrate the importance of financial security for supporting the sustainable development of an enterprise. A review of the definitions of financial security was conducted, emphasising its multifaceted nature, properties and functions, and indicating the tools and instruments that enable its effective management. The article demonstrates that financial security guarantees the continuity and development of a company, supports the long-term planning process and protects the company from internal and external threats. The theoretical analysis confirms the hypothesis that financial security is a key condition for the implementation of the concept of sustainable development.
Aim. The aim of this study was to examine the association between mentoring, understood as support provided to nurses at the beginning of their professional practice and their professional values, moral sensitivity and caring competence. Material and methods. The study included 576 newly qualifi ed nurses. Data were collected using an author-developed questionnaire and three instruments validated for use in Poland: the Care Ability Inventory, the Nurses’ Professional Values Scale (NPVS-3) and the Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire. Results. Mentoring, defi ned by respondents as having a formally assigned individual responsible for introducing them to the workplace (N = 157; 27.3% of the sample), was signifi cantly associated with higher levels of moral sensitivity (p = 0.001) and caring competence (p = 0.001). Nurses who, at the beginning of their professional careers, received support from an assigned ward nurse or a more experienced colleague demonstrated signifi cantly higher levels of these attributes. No signifi cant association was found between mentoring and professional values (p = 0.367). A total of 5.9% of respondents reported receiving no support during the initial period of employment. Conclusions. Newly qualified nurses who did not receive mentoring support demonstrated lower levels of caring competence than those who were mentored. These findings suggest that mentoring programmes delivered by experienced nurses may support the development of caring competence among newly qualified nurses and potentially contribute to safer patient care.
INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ROAD AND TRANSPORT COMPLEX: PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS Quality occupies a key position in the economic and social strategy of developed countries, and its level is a reliable indicator of the general state of the economy. Quality provides an innovative vector of development and is an integral component of the development of all industries. The level of development of the transport sector, as a component of the road and transport complex, is one of the most important characteristics of the development of modern society – its social orientation. In the transport enterprises of Ukraine, the underestimation of the importance of the comprehensive development of the quality management system has led to an increase in defects in the infrastructure of railways, road, water and air transport, which significantly increases the risk of traffic safety violations. Improvement of quality management systems is one of the most important areas of transport development. The main task of transport is timely, high-quality and complete satisfaction of the needs of the economy and the population in transportation, increasing the economic efficiency of its work. The solution to the problem of effective distribution of goods and improvement of the quality of service to consumers of transport services in market conditions is closely related to the problem of service quality. Only a high level of service quality can ensure a reliable sales market for the services of transport enterprises. A high level of service quality and efficiency should be supported by an appropriate level of material and technical support, including the development of a system of warehouse and container terminals, modern loading and unloading equipment, computerized IT and management tools. Therefore, in the modern conditions of the transformation of Ukrainian society and changes in economic interaction, quality problems caused by the presence of a competitive environment require careful research. Special attention is paid to processing and data processing, the order, cycle and context of each stage of practical application of functional analysis and cost analysis for quality management in the transport industry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How to Cite: Beketov, Yu., Levchenko, Ia., Britchenko, I., Bekmukhanbetova, Sh., Sadenova, M.; Levchenko, Ia., Dmytriiev, I.

the article examines the specifics of the formation of an integrated system of economic security of the state in modern conditions. The peculiarities of the impact of risks and threats on the functioning of the economic security system are determined. The main functional elements of the integrated system of economic security have been clarified. The importance of the formation of the mechanism of economic security for the protection of the national economy of the country has been proven. The structural elements of the mechanism of economic security in modern conditions are defined. It is proposed to introduce integrated systems of economic security of the state to combine all elements of state management of the national economy into a single system.
Aim: The analysis of the cases of cooling the burns by NFRS firefighters. Material and methods: The data of Decision Support System of State Fire Brigade made accessible by the State Fire Bureau of the Operation Planning was analyzed concerning cooling the burns among the children between 1.01.2019-31.12.2020. 49 incidents were analyzed in terms of the mechanism, localiza¬tion, depth, extend of the burns, season of the year and day. Results: Burns were cooled in 1211 out of 126241 casualties, including 1023 of 7616 in fires and 188 of 118625 in local threats. Burn were cooled in 49 children out of 1211 casualties- 23 in local threats and 26 in fires. Cooling burns more often concerned in thermal (45), contact burns (27), I/II (48), up to 10% TBSA (32), in boys (25), 14-17 years (18), in October (9), from 1-11 p.m. (27) and in IV quarter of the year (19). Conclusions: 1. Among the injured the minor ones with the burns are not often cases. 2. Cooling the burns is more often associated with those ones injured in the fires and in boys. 3. Among the injured up to 17 years cooling the burns is more often seen during afternoon and autumn-winter season. 4. The fire¬fighters more often cool thermal, contact, superficial ones of minor burns and concerning different parts of the body within the upper its parts.
