ASSESSMENT OF THE LEVEL OF FORMATION OF KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS OF STUDENTS OF THE 10TH GRADES ON THE RULES OF PROVIDING THE FIRST EMERGENCY AID TO VICTIMS
The article substantiates the need to teach high school students the rules for providing first aid to victims in emergency situations. It is noted that in the program of the school course "Fundamentals of Life Safety" a small number of hours are allocated for the study of this topic, which does not allow students to fully develop practical skills in resuscitation. Based on a comparison of the level of formation of the skills of students in two classes (medical and biological profile and non-specialized), a much higher level of theoretical knowledge and practical skills was revealed among students of a specialized class. It was noted that students of the medical and biological profile study biology and chemistry in more depth, and they also have additional hours as part of extracurricular work on the basics of medical knowledge. Such a comprehensive training program contributes to the formation of a higher level of practical preparedness of high school students.
