It is important to understand that the medical university teacher is a carrier of moral norms physician ethics of the medical profession, the bearer of national culture. Therefore, the teacher must understand the subtle issues of interpersonal interaction the participants of the business game, psychological actions and decisions. The fact that this form of training is actively shaped the future of universal personal qualities of a specialist doctor and humanity of the medical profession, mutual respect and attention. On the other hand, the future medical profession requires a graduate of Medical University of the implementation of decisive action against violations of the law, rules and regulations. Consequently, in the "business game" should be carried out not only professional but also psychological, spiritual and moral training of students.

It is understood from the fact that the principal feature and the main element of the content of this session is to self-employment students. The teacher's role - to help build a strategy for "business game", to help each participant to play to realize their interests and capabilities.

III. Results. Teaching experience shows that conducting "business games" more rational to hold on senior medical universities (institutions) and at the same time to develop a methodology of "gaming" may rely on two strategies:

- Conducting "business game" at a basic level. The lesson students are the players themselves take the role, but the overall decisions are made in close consultation of the teacher.

The introduction of gaming in the department involves the development of new teaching materials for teachers and students, design technology which should be based on the principles of focus, system, integration, mobility, which can provide divergent blocks for each level of business games, which expands the conditions and opportunities for effective implementation of the knowledge and abilities of students.

Today, technological approach to the "business games" at the Department of Occupational Health is on the stage of active formation and appears to be very promising in the training of future bachelor's degree in public health. " In terms of didactics and teaching tactics of "gaming" the most appropriate in the classroom for a variety of topics related to the study of harmful and dangerous factors of industrial environment in the industry. For example, in the study of industrial aerosols in the working area, levels of industrial noise and vibration. However, guarantee the achievement of results is possible with proper goal setting for each game. It is impossible to aspire to design roles and their tasks without formulating a clear objective on specific topics "business game".

So, on a practical lesson on the topic "Methods of identifying and evaluating the results, identifying the relationship between aerosols and health workers. Prevention of occupational diseases "tend to be a certain number of participants in the game (head of the company, the employee, an engineer, a specialist in occupational health, physician medical office, a union representative) with a variety of different tasks and administrative powers. The topic of this lesson and therefore "business game", bear a heavy load of social order. Therefore, the statement of purpose "business game" should be focused on public interests, to develop effective measures to protect the working environment and guaranteed the implementation of practical recommendations to ensure the health of the working contingent. Consequently, it is setting a goal and actual examples of the activities of health services, administration and trade union of workers of industrial enterprises have become the backbone component of the business game.

IV. Conclusions. Thus, the "business game" in the educational process at the Department of Public Health in the study of student discipline, "occupational health" is one of the most promising forms of effective teaching and learning of systematic theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary skill in their future professional work.
