Health of the modern student, as an actual problem of today

Abstract

The motto of modern youth sounds very encouraging: “It's fashionable to be healthy!”. It is very important to develop these tendencies, and to consolidate the attitude towards them as to natural needs.
 Modern medicine (of diseases and sickness!) heals diseases, but does not form a mood in people for a healthy lifestyle. A doctor from "Doctor Aibolit" should become a "health architect", and "medicine of diseases" should become "health medicine". Therefore, the WHO proclaimed the direction according to which in the 21st century medicine should move from “defensive and defensive” to “socially constructive” positions associated with the creation of health itself and active quality longevity.
 The article sounded the most probable causes affecting the unhealthiness of students, defined the medical-pedagogical and social orientation of the problem. The principles of its resolution are proposed and substantiated by the efforts of the interested student body and methodological recommendations of the teaching staff. The experience of introducing health-saving technologies by the Department of Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physical Culture and Sports of the «Khortytsia National Academy» is described.
