Areas of education in the care of a surgical patient
ČEKALOVÁ, Petra
This thesis deals with patient´s education in the surgical ward of the Hospital Jindřichův Hradec. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical parts. In the theoretical part of the thesis we define the concept of education and subsequently areas of education and educational methods. In order to prepare the thesis we used qualitative research methods. As for the data collection technique, we used a semi-structured interview with fifteen patients and fifteen general nurses. The analysis of the interviews was conducted in the form of "paper pencil" method and open coding method. The results were divided into categories and subcategories. For the sake of clarity, the individual categories and subcategories have been arranged in diagrams. The aim of the thesis is: 1 To investigate the extent of patient education prior to elective surgery during an one-day hospital stay. 2 To determine patients' views on the extent of information given during an one-day hospital stay. 3 To determine a nurses' opinion on importance and effectiveness of conducting a patient education on nutrition, exercise and wound care before and after the surgery. 4 To identify the most common methods used by nurses in patient´s education on the surgical ward. To address these objectives, there were identified five research questions: 1 What information was provided to patients as part of their education prior to elective surgery during their one-day hospitalization? 2 What information was provided to patients regarding nutrition, exercise and wound care during their one-day hospitalization? 3 How do patients evaluate the information given by nurses during their one-day hospitalization? 4 What is the opinion of nurses on the effectiveness of patient education before and after surgery? 5 What methods do nurses most often use to educate patients hospitalized in a surgical ward? Results of the research could serve as a basis for a course for surgical nurses, focusing on education of postoperative patients in the areas of nutrition, exercise and wound care. Furthermore, this research could be used to create new educational materials for patients before and after surgery (e.g. leaflets, brochures, etc.).

The attitude of educators in children's homes at the end of their career
MIŇOVSKÁ VOCŮ, Hana
The aim of the work is to describe how educators at the end of their professional career perceive their work in a children's home. For this purpose, the principles of substitute care, especially the forms of institutional education, were described in the theoretical part. With regard to the target group of female informants, a separate sub-chapter was dedicated to the children's home. Because institutional education cannot fully replace family education, attention was also paid to the risks of institutional education, especially the psychological deprivation that children from orphanages are often exposed to. In the following subchapters, the specifics of the educator's work in a children's home and his risk of stress, which can be one of the many factors of burnout syndrome, were described. Therefore, attention was also paid to prevention. The creative part is processed in the form of a qualitative approach. Data obtained from semi-structured interviews were analyzed and then interpreted through open coding.
