Social Adaptation and Family Tree

All this testifies to the increasing role of the health system of a new type of professional activity - medical social work. The formation of this type of activity is due to the deteriorating health of the population that required addressing health and social issues to a new level - at the level of socio-medical work.
 
Medical studies mainly anatomical and physiological condition of the human body as a whole and its separate systems, identifying deviations from the physiological norm, diagnose pathological changes in the body, determine cause and effect relationships underlying the mechanisms of disease. 

 It uses different methods for a full recovery of the body, normalizing its physiological processes. The tasks of social work include the identification of major factors that have the most significant impact on human health, his social adaptation and family tree, possibly affecting the health of children. 

However, the prevention activities carried out by medical personnel are often not effective because it does not affect the whole complex of social problems and solves them in part. 

 At the same time not studied the effect of individual social factors and their combinations on human health, almost no studies of society and the economic condition of families, in particular provision of the necessities for human life: housing, employment, transportation, food, no studies are demographic indicators: incidence, fertility, mortality, reproduction, population, etc.; not take into account local economic conditions of residence and its effect on human health.

General Tasks of Overcoming Crisis

Knowledge is needed urgently. In 1996 in the journal “Sociological Studies” held “round table” on “The History of sociology and history of social thought: the general and special.” JT Toshchenko expressed this thought: “How and when the cleavage between a social and sociological knowledge, occurred when the face that made it possible to speak of sociology as a science of the sovereign?

What reasons led to its institutionalization? However, in general the task of overcoming the crisis management degree of modernization in the caste society could not solve, the Russian Empire fell, according to Weber, the “historical trap” – a system of interacting vicious circles. Whatever made the tsarist government, discontent was growing.

The presence of these vicious circles, Weber explains, in particular, the hostile attitude of the autocracy towards the Zemstvo self-government as an institution, and therefore a significant part of the nobility and the intelligentsia. In an attempt to stop the revolution of the autocracy was forced to suppress their natural allies. Having stripped-down, emasculated constitution (Manifesto October 17, 1905), it has become hostage to autocracy, and has lost its power, not gaining anything in return.

From now on, it only worsened the situation, but was unable to improve it. “It is not in a position to attempt to resolve whatever the big social problem, not dealing with a death-blow” – wrote Weber. Now, in the new society, there were masses of people not included in any community structures, in addition, they were mass generated by the revolution, people with new thinking, rejecting the old hierarchies and old authorities. The world itself was devoid of holiness during the Protestant Reformation, the more devoid of holiness were state and power. Required new knowledge about the society, obtained by using new methods.
Augustine expressed the drama of man in society, going through a huge philosophical, spiritual and social shift – from pagan antiquity to the Christian Middle Ages, and from slavery to the new fabric of life. His “Confessions” is close to us today by the sense of this crisis.

Ecumenical Councils and the debates with the heretics, the organization of monasteries and schools, business records management estates orders of chivalry, the development of large programs such as the Crusades – it was saturated with issues that we have now carried it to the social studies. In the Middle Ages in the monasteries of scholastics and universities to cultivate norms and methods of discussion, the ways and means of setting goals conclusions. They performed only time-consuming work on the development of cognitive tools applicable to the reality of society. The magnitude of the intellectual work was, by the standards of Russia at that time, very, very large. It is hard to say what would have been Russian Middle Ages, if not for the invasion of the Mongols. But the historical reality will not change.

Concepts of Security Protection of Citizens

Information component of emergency is a special software is an automated information system "Duty" (AC DF). All accepted the alarm, audio and video of the negotiations and the reaction of the duty on them is recorded in the database AC DF, call the admissions process is automated attendant. Duty is only to fill an electronic "card incident." The software is modular, can include geographic information, analytical and other components, depending on the wishes of the customer.
All accepted the alarm, audio and video of the negotiations and the reaction of the duty on them is recorded in the database AC DF fill in the form of "Cards accident." System of a stationary emergency works in close integration with citywide video surveillance, forming a single complex, which allows to assess the situation on the streets.
According to the National Security Concept, issues of security of citizens included in the collection of national interests. 

 Among the priorities identified components of the security protection of the individual, society and the state from criminal attacks. The system includes complex emergency communication devices and equipment monitoring center (it can be specialized servers, gateways, routers, PBX, etc.). Depending on the type of data can be used optional intermediate level.

Undoubtedly, the organization of law enforcement on city streets and other public places - one of the greatest challenges to effective solutions which significantly depends on reducing the criminalization of social relations, and a decrease in crime. Its achievement is impossible without an effective system of control over the operational situation and without the empowerment of citizens operative communication with law enforcement. Today is such a system "Safe city" that turns into a new form of organization of public order, more efficient than the former. One of the major components of the "Safe City" is a steady-state hotline "citizen-police."

 
The system of emergency "Citizen Militia" allows you to organize the most rapid treatment of citizens in the internal affairs bodies, monitoring centers, and as a consequence, increase the percentage of crimes solved by 'hot pursuit', to raise the overall level of safety of citizens through the creation of "islands of security."
The system is a set of hardware and software that allows you to implement a national treatment for bilateral audio channel through the device in an emergency monitoring center and is designed to receive messages from the public about the facts of a criminal nature, violations of public order, accidents, natural disasters and other emergencies. The overall composition of the system and algorithm
Emergency units are user-friendly interface. To call a duty to make a single call button (pressing or holding the button does not affect the operation of the device). During connection establishment unit plays signals, similar to an ordinary telephone signals. A conversation with the duty is performed in full-duplex speakerphone mode. Adjust the speaker volume and microphone sensitivity is performed automatically during operation. Terminating only at the initiative of duty. Maybe a hidden listening device near the situation an emergency.
Places to the installation of emergency communication specialists are determined to public safety. The maximum efficiency is achieved by installing devices in the busiest areas of the city and criminogenic (railway stations, markets, places of mass gathering of citizens, etc.). Information on emergency communication device enters the monitoring center, where the duty officer responds to a message received from a person - for example, is patrolling.
At the monitoring center is located equipment reception, recording and processing of information circulating in the system. At the disposal system has the duty to control micro-telephone headset and a workstation (AWS) based on a personal computer. When called with an emergency standby unit hears the call control system, and on-screen workstation sees a picture from a camera device.

Social Psychiatry Factors

In psychiatry and clinical psychology, this term is considered as a separate approach, which focuses on social factors in the etiology and treatment of mental illness.If we do not focus on this academic definition, and an explanation of the term head of the Swiss community of social psychiatry, L. Ciompi, it will give us insight into the practical side of things. L. Ciompi defines social psychiatry as "part of General Psychiatry, who understands and treats patients within his social environment, as well as with his social environment." The key words in this case are within the social environment and social environment, together with the person with mental health problems. 

Psychiatry social workesr should cover all ranges of social factors (family, housing, work situation, economic situation, socio-cultural environment). And, accordingly, the intervention should take place at three levels (individual, family, community) to reduce the incidence, duration and degree of impairment that are associated with mental illness.
Also, community-based psychiatry - is brought to life the idea of ​​approaching the customer service (all services - medical and psychiatric care, rehabilitation, care), so that it does not "withdraw" from the natural social environment, and provide services to patients in the community - where his family and relatives (those that can support), because to solve the problem better adapt / adaptation of people with mental health problems, improve their social functioning is possible only in the usual human social environment.
The initial conceptualization of community psychiatry Gerald Caplan proposed back in 1961. It was seen as the cause of the community, which creates stress, which, in turn, produces psychopathology. Because on the one hand, it is necessary to work with the community to reduce the influence of stress factors (primary prevention), and on the other - the community should bear the burden of treatment and care of people with disabilities because it is responsible for their appearance.
Continuity of care associated with the first principle, provides mental health services help consumers protect themselves from returning to the disease, to help sort out the network of community social services. This means that services must be connected to the network - a system of services that no obstacles could work in cooperation, harmony, the way to the consumer from one service to another was not difficult and aggravating.  

For example, prior to discharge a person from the psychiatric hospital care and hospital services should contact the hospital and the employee must provide information about a person who is discharged from the hospital to a social worker in the area based on its plan of work with this customer. The manager should check the connection between the services that it really works.
Availability: it is assumed that the community mental health services should be accessible to those who need care and social rehabilitation. This means that they should be located close to the consumer's residence or work, public transport and be available to work schedule that includes evenings and weekends (at least for urgent cases).
To achieve this, community-based mental health services should be placed evenly over areas to centers that have served the residents of a defined geographical area. Comfort is achieved by the availability of such services to people with disabilities, with limited hearing and sight. In addition, services should be culturally and gender.
Multidisciplinary team - another principle of community psychiatry, which provides that the professionals who provide care, rehabilitation in the community should be organized in multidisciplinary teams. Teams may include psychiatrists, psychologists, psychiatric nurses, social workers, rehabilitation therapists (re-creation), consultants. Also, some team members must be experts in certain areas, such as, for example, housing or vocational rehabilitation.
In other words, it is a different organization of medical and rehabilitative care of mentally ill, with an emphasis on supporting social functioning rather than an extended stay in a psychiatric hospital (in isolation from its social environment). Such an organization provides for a wide range of psychiatric and social services in the community (district), which carry out the intervention by the degree of increase in the level of intensity.
First, a person is invited to participate in the program (Outreach programs). This flexible model of psychiatric care outside the hospital, which is based on the evaluation of needs and provides services for treatment, care at home or in community mental health services (located in the area of ​​residence). Such programs increase access to mental health and improve mental health outcomes. If the passage of such programs does not work to improve the human condition, suffering from mental health problems, offers outpatient clinical services (outpatient clinical services), day hospital, and only when all of this does not bring improvement - only offered admission.

Occupational unsafety - Sank Drilling Oil Platform

In December last year in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, there was a terrible tragedy, sank drillingPlatform "Kola." Of the 67 people killed 53, only 14 managed to escape. Innormal country would be announced on this occasion of mourning. This is normal, we have the samewhere the price of human life penny, afraid even for a moment to pull the plugfor show business and occupational safety is forgotten. 




This is not just a business, is the foundation of our state, you need during the daynight and entertain people, so that he too thought about what is happening around them.Not in vain, many participants in the fishery, as people of one blood with the candidatefor president, Vladimir Putin, became his proxies. Cost the grievingOnly in one area of ​​Murmansk, where I came from a half dead. Last yearone can call it funeral. Fell, burned, drowned, had not time to bury him.Officials, however, before the election it was necessary to tell how all is well in the countrythe great, triumphant reports were needed. On the sad, tragic casestried to forget.  

The indifference of the authorities played a further contrasttwo worlds, they have there, over the hill, where there is no "United Russia" and Putin, a continuousdisgrace. Ship "Concordia" fell on its side, as a result of four tohalf thousand guests killed 17 people. To the great joy of ourKoreans just got off alarm. The details of this tragedy, eachrelished the day on television and in newspapers. They said the captain, hisMoldavanka mistress, the ship swerve off course, and they miluyutsya in the cabin. Oursunburned tourists caught correspondents asked about spoiled vacationsoccurred during the evacuation from the hustle and bustle of the ship. One can sympathize with these wealthygentlemen who have spent large sums on a cruise, and he turnedone nepriyatnostyami.Dve tragedy occurred almost at the same time, why nottake at least one interview with our sailors, drillers, miraculously remainingalive after the tragedy of "Kola" for the central TV channels? For information aboutthis tragedy frantically edited, removed from the front pages of news. Thesesecrets, we can not be used publicly, distribute.

Most Popular Safety Professions

Occupational Safety

Occupational safety Degree
OSHA designed a set of guidelines which requires from companies to change their methods if the inspection isn't good enough and should be followed for the safe removal of these chemicals. OSHA has also designed guidelines in case of pollutants in the air, chemical spills, and other emergencies which can affect the health of people who happen to be in the polluted area. Materials safety degree sheets, which list all the chemicals which are used on company property and also their ingredients, are provided in order to protect people from the damage. These lists are to be updated whenever new materials or chemicals are used.
Safety professionals help employers to create a safer environment for American workers by enforcing federal requirements. They recommend safety, training, protective equipment, management controls, and reporting mechanisms in a general safety culture. When safety professionals help the employer to be vigilant, the likelihood for fines associated with OSHA non-compliance is reduced.

Career in Homeland security

Homeland security represents an amount of security efforts that are aimed to prevent terrorist activities in the USA. Homeland security degree programs become more and more available in schools and univerisities across the United States. The Homeland Security Degree courses which are offered at the schools include classes in Hazardous materials and Emergency preparedness
It also involves the reduction of vulnerability to terrorism in United States, minimization of the damage and recovering from attacks that do happen. After the tragedy of 9/11 the idea of homeland security became of great importance.

Fire Service

Majority of states also need a firefighter to pass a proficiency and physical exam before the student beginswork within a fire department.

TV Global Influencing - Final Part

In relation to the influence of television on the state, it is possible to say that it depends on the level of competition between different channels. For instance, Globo network played a dominant role on Brasil television in 1980s. Globo used their influence on people to urge Brasilians to vote for Fernando Collor de Mello and helped him to win in the election. But when the choice of TV channels is wide enough, the possibility to affect election results becomes illusory as we can observe today in the developed countries like USA.

Even more, competition and diversity of TV channels can become the insurmountable obstacle for corruption. A television is a huge industry and roguish people would pay hundreds of thousands dollars to every TV channel to provide their support. And if the diversity of TV channels is appreciably wide, then the total control under mass-media becomes unreachable.

The many positive sides of television were illuminated above. But can it make our world more peaceful place?
There is a lot of debate among researchers about the influence of violence on TV on people. Any way in common the TV reports from Vietnam to the Iraq war intensify pacific trends in the human society. A television provides also emotional connection between the people from distant places of the Earth. According William Davidson Institute, the news about the Asian tsunami increased online donations to charity.

Undoubtedly a television helps to grow global cosmopolitanism but its development depends on what people are watching. It is clear that Al Jazeera and CNN describe September 11 attacks and the invasion of Iraq totally differently. But with the spreading broadcasting of Al Jazeera in the West, and with the spreading broadcasting of CNN in the Middle East, it might be possible to understand the opposite side.

Yes, a television can help to solve real-world problems as with well-designed educational TV programs as with soap operas and music shows. But it doesn’t mean that the governance should use a television as a universal panacea. Rather the politicians just shouldn’t interfere in the news and limit the number of channels.
Because of the global spreading of television broadcasting, the world is spending more time to watch TV. Surely this time can be spent in a better way. But still a television provides new ideas, a connection with different people, the growing of tolerance and cosmopolitanism (with Charles Kenny).

TV Global Influencing - Part 2

Another unobvious application of TV was promoted by health and family welfare minister of India. He suggested assisting TV expansion to decrease birthrates. From his point of view, a television is considered as the substitution for sex that used to be the only entertainment in the past.

In 1970s, Brazilian soap operas used the popular female characters that were uncommon to this country: divorced, having no kids ones. And soon it started to transform to the realty. More and more women preferred to get higher education and tended to have fewer children. Against the contraceptive advertising restrictions and without any government policies the soap operas managed to choose social attitudes.
In a similar way, soap operas affected on women in rural India. Popular characters from TV shows, that have high education, run business and have few children, inspired Indian village girls to stay at school longer and become well-educated.

Thus, cable and satellite changed the birthrates and girls’ high school enrollment, increased female autonomy and significantly decreased the difference between the life in cities and in countries. The director of Afganistan Star claims that this show “do more for women’s rights than all the millions of dollars we have spent on public service announcements for women’s rights on TV.”

In addition, TV shows lead to decreasing drug consumption by young people, as survey of World Bank reports. And not only soap operas work miracles but also purposeful educational broadcast campaigns affect people and make social changes. For example, in Ghana the amount of women, who wash their hands before cooking, increased after the broadcast campaign explaining the potential damage of dirty hands.
In spite of common opinion that a television impedes learning, well-designed educational TV programs can even improve the results of school tests. Nowadays in Mexico the Telesecundaria program helps about 700,000 schoolchildren to get better scores in mathematics and language.

The influence of a television on the human society can be ambiguous. According Ben Olken, habitants of Javanese rural areas decreased the level of participation in social activities. But it didn’t affect the participation in discussions and meetings. The similar results were achieved in the researches of US regions that got access to more channels in 1950s. It increased political knowledge and interest among the local population.

TV Global Influencing - Part 1

TV has been reviled for its moral decline and ignorance since it appeared in 1920x. Religious authorities from different countries considered television as a sinful tool of spreading immorality.

There was one TV set for 1.1 billion households around the world by 2007, and this amount is going to grow to 1.25 billion next four years.  The critics of TV are afraid of increasing such negative tendency as an obesity and desocialisation, solitude. But at the same time wide spreading of television can lead to the unity of people in face of global problems. It can lead to women’s emancipation in developing countries, and make the world more healthy and well-organized.

In the last few years new web-based social networks like Twitter and Facebook are at the center of attention, but, despite of this, a television keeps influencing the important changes around the world such as increasing amount of weel-educated poor people and decreasing level of the corruption. This effect was achieved with assistance of music shows and soap operas like local versions of American Idol and Desperates Housewives. It’s hard to believe, that households have more TV sets than refrigerators in 5 time! Even more, the distribution of a television in poor countries passes ahead of electricity.

Thus, the television seems to extend its broadcasting over the whole world with lightning speed: 90 percent of Europeans and North Americans, 80 percent of Vietnamese people, about 50 percent of Indians households already have a TV.

In addition to spreading geographically, a television is going to make revolution in the quantity of accessible channels providing wider choice. The half of TV viewers will be able to use digital broadcast through cable and satellite. Today Americans have access to more than 100 channels and there is trend to spread these technologies around the world.

In addition, wider choice of TV channels gives access to the diversity of opinions, and helps reduce influence of the bureaucracy. Of course, in many countries the state strives to control the main TV channels. For example, Hugo Chavez took the control over the most popular TV network in Venezuela and now people in this country have to enjoy TV show Alo Presidente during many hours. And the access to the bigger amount of TV channels gives the opportunity to choose what the audience wants. And in so diverse countries the people often have similar tastes. The final of 2006 soccer World Cup attracted to TV screens about 715 million people. Above 80 million people in 66 countries are addicted to medical drama House.  So most people prefer sports, reality shows and soap operas.
