The topicality of the topic is determined by the situation in Latvian state health care, where approximately 80% of the total number of graduates choose to continue working in the profession after their studies every year. When starting work in a medical institution, young nurses are faced with various tests, which include the specifics of work, training, internal environment in the work team. Not passing the adaptation stage, some nurses choose not to continue working in the profession, as a result of witchnew specialists are lost every year. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to find out the adaption of the general care nurse in the professional environment, starting the work process. Research hypothesis: The adaption of the general care nurse in the professional environment, when starting work, is significantly influenced by the individual approach provided by the supervisor. To achieve the goal, the following tasks were set: 1. to analyze the literature, including the description of he concept of āadaptionā; 2. to analyze P. Bennerās theory about nursing competence levels; 3. create a research tool- a questionnaire; 4.to conduct a quantitative study in medical institutions; 5. to collect and analyze the obtained results; 6. develop conclusions and put forward proposals. Within the framework of the work, a quantitative research method was used with a research tool- a questionnaire. Research respondents: general care nurses with up to 1 year of work experience. Research base: Internet environment. The results of the study reflect the desire of 83% of young nurses for an individual approach from the supervisor.

AtslÄgas vÄrdi: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, antibakteriÄlie lÄ«dzekļi, baktÄriju rezistencePseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii are the main causes of health-related infections (HAI). P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii cause various HAI, including bacteremia, pneumonia, meningitis, urinary tract infections. The resistance of these pathogens to antimicrobial agents has grown rapidly in recent years and it is the most pressing problem nowadays. The aim of the study: to determine the susceptibility of gram-negative bacteria P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii to antimicrobial agents and to compare changes in antibacterial resistance over two years. Tasks: to identify isolates from respiratory tract by BBLā¢ Crystalā¢ system, to perform antibacterial susceptibility tests using the Bauer-KirbyTM disc diffusion test and ETM-test, and to phenotype isolates by antibiogram. The results are summarized using MS Excel 2016. Results: Comparing both years, the number of P. aeruginosa isolates had increased, while A. baumannii decreased. In 2017 P. aeruginosa isolates most commonly were susceptible against amikacin - 90,77% (n-59), while the most commonly reported resistance was against ceftazidime - 21,54% (n-14). In 2017, isolates of A. baumannii were 100% susceptible to colistin, while most commonly resistant was against ceftazidime - 66,7% (n-10). Both pathogens showed the highest increase in resistance over two years to ceftazidime- 10,18% and 30,96% respectively. The most common phenotype of P. aeruginosa was phenotype I, which is susceptible to all antibacterial agents. Combined resistance was observed at 9.23%. The most common phenotypes of A. baumannii were I and III. The phenotype I is susceptible to all antibacterial agents, but the phenotype III was resistant to almost all antimicrobial agents but not to colistin. Combined resistance was observed at 60%.
