PODLIPNÁ, Martina
The thesis deals with the quality of mental health care, key aspect of which is the respect of human dignity. The first part characterizes the ethical and legal basis of human dignity. Further, it summarizes the ethical principles regarding human dignity formulated in codes of ethics of the particular professions represented in a multidisciplinary team providing services to people with mental illness. The next part describes selected approaches to this target group - the medical and rehabilitation models of treatment in particular. After that, the recovery approach is introduced. Recovery from mental illness is approached as a psychological process, in which people strive for a dignified life. This process has four fluid stages - hope, empowerment, self-responsibility and having a meaningful role in life. The final part discusses the contributions and difficulties of recovery approach in connection with dignity of people with mental illness. This approach fulfils the fundamental requirement of quality of social work, which is the respect to human dignity.

The specifics of emergency medical services care of mental health patients
DUPAL, Jakub
The specifics of emergency medical services with care of mental health patients Abstract The topic of this bachelor thesis is "The specifics of emergency medical services with care of mental health patients." The aim of this bachelor thesis is to map the types of procedures used in this area. We have divided this thesis into several parts. The first part of this thesis is theoretical, we deal with the characteristics of the personality traits of paramedic and related competences, because I consider competences in this area as crucial. In the second part, this thesis deals with the communication which represents fundamental ability of every paramedic. The last third of the theoretical work depicts and defines mental illnesses covered in this thesis. Next part of this bachelor thesis represents a research, we have used following questions to formulate research: VO 1: What are the procedures of a paramedic in contact with a mentally ill person? VO 2: What are the specifics in the work of operator in the medical operation center with a mentally ill person? VO 3: What are the risks in the work of paramedic with mentally ill person? The aim of this bachelor thesis was to deal with the procedure of paramedics and operators in medical operation center in the contact with mentally ill patients, whose state requires immediate emergency medical care provided by Emergency Medical Service. The additional aim of this bachelor thesis was to monitor the potential risks of providing emergency medical care to patients with mental illnesses. The result of our research was to answer the set research questions. The answer to question VO 1 was that there is a set of procedures used in the contact with mentally ill patients, but we cannot use them to all possible states. The answer to VO 2 was similar to VO 1, operators in medical operation center use certain procedures, but it is up to their immediate decision how they deal with the receiving call. The answer to VO 3 was that the risk for paramedic in the work with mentally ill patient is potential emergence of aggression. Another risk is the communication itself. Paramedics have to know their possibilities in dealing with this situation and they have to be aware of their legal boundaries too.

Mental health support and activation of people with mental illness from the point of view of a special pedagogue
Cimbálová, Lucie ; Janyšková, Kristýna (advisor) ; Bartoňová, Miroslava (referee)
This thesis focuses on the forms and methods of support for individuals with mental illness aimed at helping them to return to normal life. The individual chapters of the thesis deal with the historical milestones of the emergence of psychiatry, the classification of mental illness and quality of life issues. Therefore, the most used therapeutic methods and strategies of working with clients are defined in the text, which lead to the adoption of appropriate daily habits, improvement of mental health and thus quality of life. The work also focuses on interdisciplinary cooperation, which, in addition to medicine, permeates other disciplines, namely psychology, social work and special education. The topic of my research is timely as an increasing number of people with mental illness are seeking professional help. Therefore, all team members should have sufficient knowledge of the symptomatology and nature of each psychiatric diagnosis. In order for interdisciplinary collaboration to be meaningful, the competencies of the individual professionals must be clearly defined. This creates an interconnected set of services aimed at making the person's integration into society and everyday life as easy as possible. KEYWORDS Mental health support; activation; therapy; mental illness; day care centre; stigma of...

Nothing tastes as good as hunger (television documentary about anorexia)
Slavíková, Kristýna ; Macková, Veronika (advisor) ; Lokšík, Martin (referee)
Eating disorders (abbreviated as ED) are complex mental illnesses that manifest not only on the level of the mind, but also have a profound effect on the physical health of patients. Individuals who suffer from one of the types of ED often face a significantly reduced quality of life, as well as misunderstandings and unfounded prejudices from the general public. Arguably the most well-known variant of the disease is anorexia nervosa, which is also one of the psychiatric diagnoses with the highest mortality rate. Although the incidence of the disease has increased in recent years, for example as a result of social media and the COVID-19 pandemic, audiovisual coverage of the topic has lagged behind, as there are few recent films dealing with the disease. The television documentary, Nothing Tastes as Good as Hunger, therefore seeks to bring the audience closer to living with anorexia through the authentic story of 19-year-old Tereza Putišová, giving viewers an uncensored insight into the mind of a girl who has her own rich experience of the disease.
