Based on the theoretical analysis the authors have come to the conclusion that professional growth of health workers in strenuous conditions when performing work activities is related with the degree of psychological resources of health. Proactiveness and basic personal capabilities (self-transcendence and self-distancing) being primary components of selfdetermination and key resources of personality health characterize maturity of its agency. The way a subject actualizes personal psychological resources in stress inducing conditions at work has an impact not only on his or her health status, but also the degree of professional growth. The empirical evidence has shown that health workers who scored high on personality resources rank meaningfulness of their life, subjective well-being, and job satisfaction very high. Health works focused on professional growth demonstrated a higher rate of psychological health resources and willingness to incorporate them into their daily living activities. The assessment of the degree of these resources allows getting a complete idea of professional personality growth and prognosticate its further development.
