Abstract
Medical records are very often treated by medical staff as an additional, unpleasant and unnecessary duty. However, it is currently the basic, undeniable source of defence against all claims of patients, both formal, regarding the correctness of the records, and substantive, related to the allegations of medical malpractice during the provision of medical services.

Abstract
Physiotherapists are regarded as one of the medical professions of public trust. The Act on Physiotherapist Occupation establishes physiotherapists as a medical occupation of public trust. Medical professions of public trust, such as doctors, nurses, and paramedics, have special legal protection not available to physiotherapists. The Act on Physiotherapists has not defined the physiotherapist as a civil servant. It directly deprives physiotherapists of special legal protection that is assigned to civil servants.
Key words:
Physiotherapist – medical profession of public trust, legal protection of physiotherapist, civil servant, the danger of practising physiotherapy
