Experience of health care managers with motivation, team leadership and build-up of the professional competence of their employees
MAREČKOVÁ, Tereza
Current state: The motivation of nursing staff is an integral part of the activities of nurse managers. Most of the time, work in the healthcare sector is very mentally and physically demanding for all medical staff, and especially for nursing staff, who are in closest contact with patients. Nurse managers should therefore be aware of the importance of staff motivation. All health workers have the obligation of lifelong learning, and therefore the head nurses should pay attention to the educational activities of the staff. The objective of the qualitative research was to describe the work motivation of nurses, in particular, the experience nurse managers have with team building activities and to map their role in the field of increasing the professional competence of their employees. The aim of the quantitative part of the study was to evaluate nurse satisfaction with the motivational program of the organization in which they work. Another goal was to find out if nurses are interested in team building activities. The final goal of the quantitative research was to evaluate nurse satisfaction with the employer's offer of lifelong learning. Methodology: A mixed qualitative and quantitative design was chosen for the research. The data collection for the qualitative research was carried out through semi-structured interviews with first and middle line nurse managers. The data intended for the quantitative research study were obtained using the technique of a non-standardized self-constructed questionnaire intended for shift nurses. The research group of the qualitative part of the research survey was made up of 11 head nurses, and the research group of the quantitative part of the research survey was made up of 179 shift nurses. The research took place in two hospitals of the faculty and regional type in the period July-September 2022. Results: Nurse managers considered employee motivation to be an important and integral part of their work. Adequate financial remuneration of nurses was stated by the majority of nurse managers as the strongest motivating factor. Four fifths of the interviewed nurses were satisfied with their salary (81%). More than four-fifths of nurses were satisfied with the hospital incentive program (82.7%), and nurse satisfaction with the incentive program did not vary statistically significantly with their age (p=0.724). The head nurses had no experience with team building activities. More than a third of nurses (40.8%) were interested in participating in team building activities. Nurse willingness to participate in team building activities decreased with age (p <0.030). The head nurses stated that they try to motivate and support the nurses for further education. Among the obstacles preventing further education of nurses, they included fatigue associated with a lack of staff, as well as lack of time and lack of interest of nurses in further education. More than three quarters of nurses (76%) were satisfied with the offer of lifelong learning offered by the employer. Nurse satisfaction with the employer's offer of lifelong learning increased significantly with the applicability of newly acquired knowledge in clinical practice (p <0.001). Conclusion: The level of relationships at the workplace is related to the satisfaction and motivation of the staff, and the associated effective communication in the team. Nurse managers should therefore pay attention to the development of positive relationships at the workplace and the cooperation of individual team members. One of the possibilities of working with teams can be, for example, team building. If we want educated nursing staff in hospitals who are continuously educated, it is necessary for them to be supported in further education by senior staff and the organization.

Lifelong learning from the perspective of Czech nurses
MERTLÍKOVÁ, Renáta
Introduction: This bachelor's thesis focuses on the topic of lifelong learning from the perspective of Czech nurses. The theoretical part deals with the history of education, lifelong learning in the Czech Republic and abroad, motivation and barriers to the lifelong learning of nurses. Lifelong learning of nurses is one of the essential parts of nurses' general education, as there is a constant change in health care and nurses need to renew and consolidate their knowledge. In addition, the, lifelong learning of nurses is mandatory by law in the Czech Republic. Aim: The work aimed to find out what motivates Czech nurses the most for lifelong learning, whether the knowledge gained in the framework of lifelong learning is reflected in nursing practice, what factors limit nurses' lifelong learning and which forms of lifelong learning Czech nurses prefer. Methodology: A quantitative survey method was used for this work. The data were obtained using our semi-structured questionnaire distributed among 80 nurses at the Prachatice Hospital. However, the return was only 49 questionnaires. Results: Nurses are most motivated to lifelong learning by gaining new knowledge they can use in nursing practice (71.5 %). We also found that nurses' knowledge gained in lifelong learning is reflected in nursing practice (67.4 %). Regarding the factors that limit nurses' participation in lifelong learning, most nurses reported it as time-consuming (44.9 %). Lastly, we found that nurses do not prefer one single form of lifelong learning but more of them. These are professional seminars, specialization education, innovative and certified courses, training events and conferences. Conclusion: The benefit of this bachelor's thesis can be the inspiration and motivation of nurses for lifelong learning. Furthermore, the results can serve the health care employers to increase the motivation of nurses for further education or remove the barriers that stand in their way to further education.

The Lifelong Learning of the Social Workers in the Non Governmental Organizations
HRUBEŠOVÁ, Nikola
The diploma thesis focuses on the topic of lifelong learning of social workers who work in non-governmental non-profit organizations. The aim of this work was to find out what possibilities social workers have with a completed master's degree in the field of lifelong learning. The second important goal was to find out what the social workforce needs for lifelong learning and whether their needs are taken into account in the provision of education. Lifelong learning is an integral part of social work and it is important to take into account the needs of social workers. To achieve these goals, quantitative research was used, which was carried out with the help of a questionnaire survey, which asked a total of 28 questions, some of which were optional. A total of 61 social workers who work in a non-governmental non-profit organization and have a master's degree were contacted. As part of this quantitative research, research was conducted focused only on the South Bohemian Region, where non-governmental non-profit organizations and social workers working in them were found within the register of social service providers. A total of 36 social workers responded to the questionnaire, with the questionnaires being sent twice because unfortunately, the return was very low in the first wave. The data that were subsequently obtained from the questionnaire survey were processed both in Microsoft Excel, but also in R software. From the conducted research it is possible to conclude that social workers are satisfied with the courses offer by their employer. This shows that needs of social workers are both satisfied and motivated. Respondents stated that they regularly receive course offers from their employer. This I consider very important and perspective. This proves that the continuous education of social worker is not happening only because it is required by the government but it is happening because private non-profit organisations support it on their own. Concerning the organization in my data sample I can conclude that the needs of their social workers are taken into account.
