The health and social worker is an integral part of a multidisciplinary team in a psychiatric hospital, where patients are provided with comprehensive health and social care. A health and social worker in a psychiatric hospital plays a number of roles and activities. We rank among the roles service provider and social adaptation trainer and we rank among the activities providing professional social counseling to the patient and his family, participation in visits and treatment programs and meetings, support in processing documents, in solving debt problems and in solving housing problems. The employment of a health and social worker is one of the helping professions where self-care and observance of the principles of psychohygiene are necessary. The most important means of psychohygiene is supervision, which is observed by the employer of psychiatric hospitals and health and social workers participate in it at regular intervals. The bachelor thesis can be used as feedback for the facility where the research will be carried out. The results of the work can be used by health and social workers in health care and students in the field of health and social care who are considering employment in a psychiatric hospital.

The bachelor thesis deals with a case conference, which is one of the tools of social work with the family. The aim of the work is to find out how social workers in region of Jindřichův Hradec use this method and if they perceive it as an effective tool of their work. The theoretical part of the work is based on the study of professional literature related to the topic. It is focused on definition of terms such as social work with the family, social and legal protection of children, the role of a social worker and a case conference. Topics such as family, family functions, non-functional family or social work are explained here. The practical part of the bachelor thesis deals with the evaluation of research questions through a qualitative research strategy. The necessary data were gained through interviews with social workers who have personal experience with the implementation of the case conference. I categorized the gained material by the method of open coding and subsequently I analysed it. On the basis of these steps, it was possible to evaluate the goal of the bachelor's thesis and make a conclusion. From the results of the research, it can be concluded that case conferences are widely used by social workers, as it is a method that they consider very beneficial and effective. Thanks to this method, the work with the family has become faster and more coordinated. We can see the successes that social workers record after its implementation. The gained results could be used in praxis as a base for a deeper contemplation on the topic or they can become an inspiration for social workers who work with this method.
