Overview
The organization of health care is based, among others, on organization structures employing professional multidisciplinary teams. Each members of the team occupies a precisely defined position in the team interpersonal relations. Interpersonal relationships belong to the most important aspects of the atmosphere at the workplace, which can be cooperative but also hostile. This fact can become manifest in the quality of provided care. The interest of leading managers should be to create such kind of atmosphere (climate), where all individual members of the team could expressed themselves freely, put suggestions freely without the risk of their personal harm done. In other words the managers should to secure psychical work safety. In contrast to situation abroad, attention to psychical safety in the Czech Republic is given little interest. The preferred aspects include indices of physical safety, which can be exactly measured. In the continually changing world of work it is important to pay adequate attention to psychical work safety. In neglected for a long time, projected into psychical damage to the workers, it can bring about interpersonal risks leading to the burn-out syndrome, increased staff turnover and finally result to damage to the patients.
