By synthesizing these methods, the research gained valuable insights into thechallenges faced by medical professionals in preventing violence and identified opportunities for enhancing coopera-tion within the healthcare system. This comprehensive approach facilitated a nuanced exploration of the integrationof legislative aspects into the daily routines of medical practitioners to advance the implementation of the Barnahusmodel in Latvia.

The goal is to describe intercultural competence, highlighting its importance and the possibilities for its acquisition in the training and professional everyday lives of police officers. The article uses general scientific methods – analysis of scientific literature and documents, as well as the induction–deduction method, drawing conclusions and making proposals, and (grammatical, historical, systemic, teleological) methods of interpretation of legal regulations, analysing applicable legislation and policy planning documents. The study concludes that the daily work of the police in today's environment requires good management and cultural awareness in dealing with residents, with the consequent development of intercultural competence among police officers as a prerequisite for successful performance and cooperation with different communities in a multicultural society. The acquisition and development of intercultural competence should be included in police training programmes, complementing professional standards as appropriate, and in professional development activities for police officers. At the same time, the structural changes in the State Police should be addressed, with responsible officers being identified to deal with culturally diverse populations, and professional models for police dealing with culturally diverse populations should be developed.","PeriodicalId":34542,"journal":{"name":"Socrates","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136168172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For all the stakeholders,legal certainty in healthcare is an issue of major importance. To contribute to this aspect, this study aims to detect thelegal and ethical framework of the medical practitioner’s obligation to provide treatment outside of working hours. Thescientific literature, case-law, legal acts and court judgements were studied; the analytic, doctrinal, comparative andmodelling methods were applied; the general legal norm interpretation methods were used. The authors conclude thatoutside of working hours, medical practitioners are exempt from their legal responsibilities, are guided by moral normsand general citizens’ obligations only and have the right to refuse to provide professional healthcare services. Theinconsistency among legal scholars and legal and medical practitioners concerning the duties of healthcare profes-sionals during their rest time was detected. The recommendations are proposed to ensure legal certainty and achieveconsentaneity among the stakeholders.","PeriodicalId":34542,"journal":{"name":"Socrates","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136168185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present research aims to analyse implemented wel-fare measures for therapy dogs, based on scientific literature and regulatory acts. Fifteen semi-structured interviewswere conducted to explore how therapy dog owners provide welfare requirements to their therapy dogs. The followingcategories of welfare were identified to describe therapy dogs involved in a canine therapy: meeting basic needs, vet-erinary care, training, work process and possibility to express species-specific behaviour. The research results indicatethat therapy dog handlers fulfil the minimum requirements of welfare and in some cases exceed these requirements;however, it is up to a handler to choose whether the minimum or an exceeded amount of welfare requirements will beperformed. Lack of regulation in some cases necessitates improvement in setting minimum demands, for instance, insuch cases as a therapy dog workload per day/week.","PeriodicalId":34542,"journal":{"name":"Socrates","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136168183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
