ResPublica/Civitas Socialis - Strachotín
Malík, Lukáš ; Zadražilová, Miroslava (referee) ; Nový, Vítězslav (advisor)
The house is located in a quiet part of Strachotín. The plot itself is now used as agricultural land. The bio corridor belt creates a natural dominance around the area and ensures safe drainage of water during torrential rains. The concept is based on a wide range of services and care. The home for seniors will become part of the life of all seniors in the village and nearby. Supporting home-based autonomy allows seniors to live in their own home and only use the services that are available. Visits and social activities are a matter of course. Accommodation in the house itself will preferably be provided to seniors who require constant care. The operating standard of the home is designed to a very good standard. The home offers a barrier-free environment, single or double rooms. Meeting rooms are an important part of the house, along with a garden and bathing biotope. Separate living from operation guarantees a high level of privacy and allows direct contact with the garden.

Day care users' human rights protection
VANDASOVÁ, Lucie
This thesis shortly refers to the history of social service in the Czech Republic. It determines the basic terms, which were used: nursing service, standards of quality, human rights defence. The theortical part of this work also concerns the law on social care, its meaning and basis for defending the human rights of social care users. The practical part of this work summarizes the outputs of several dialogs and analyzes the data from this research. Within this research it was verified whether the users of social care are satisfied with the level of human rights protection and if they really percieve it as the most important right protected by theCharter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms: the right to human dignity. Another part of the research deals with the questin whether the users and public know about the responsibility of the provider to have the human rights protection anchored in its documents and whether the users and their families want to actively participate in the creation of the corresponding rules. An integral part of this work is a draft standard for the nursing care that could help defend human rights anchored in theCharter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms.
A comparison of day care funding in an administrative district of municipality with extended competence of České Budějovice.
ZÍBAROVÁ, Zuzana
The thesis compares funding of domiciliary services in the administration district of České Budějovice, the municipality with the extended scope of performance. In the theoretical part I focus on the history of the development of domiciliary social services provided on site and I define the social service at first. Then, I identify the different specifics of social services and their characteristics. Attention is also devoted to funding of social services in the Czech Republic and European countries. I also show the differences in management in the non-profit sector. The most important section of the thesis analyzes domiciliary service and gives its definition. Further, the thesis contains practical part, which compares the collected data on the domiciliary services. It specifies services provided within the domiciliary services, funds granted for the service, number of clients, basic information on providers and their pricelists. The data were collected as of the last quarter of 2011. The target of the thesis was to compare the income and expenditures of the domiciliary services provided in the administration district of České Budějovice, the municipality with the extended scope of performance. For the applied methodology I selected qualitative research and the secondary analysis of data as the applied method. The conducted research analysed four types of services provided in the administration district. The original hypothesis of the thesis that the assessed providers have identical average cost per 1 user proved to be invalid.
