Popis: Introduction. The division of nursing staff into procedural, post and dressing personnel has long been fixed in the system of medical positions. Their work dictates the execution of highly specialized manipulations. Such a system of job responsibilities is transparent and understandable for medical personnel and patients. But in recent years, there has been a tendency to generalize labor functions and consolidate nursing specializations. In this regard, a special role is played by studies related to the identification of the attitude of medical personnel to this reform. Purpose of the study. Identification of the attitude of medical personnel to the idea of introducing the position of “clinical nurse“. Methodology. Sociological research using the quantitative method (mass questionnaire survey of nurses and doctors of medical organizations). Results. Based on the systematization of the information obtained by the authors in the course of the study, the main positive and negative aspects of the introduction of a new position in the health care system are identified. Discussion. Subject to the introduction of the new position of “clinical nurse“, its functionality should be fixed in educational programs along with the new functionality of nurses. And not only when training nurses, but also their colleagues, doctors. In practice, the interaction of medical specialists should be built accordingly. Conclusion. The collected and systematized opinions of the respondents interviewed in the course of the study are valuable material for formulating recommendations for implementing the idea of creating a “clinical nurse“ position.
