The question about stress in family dying
PATKOVÁ, Dagmar
The aim of this thesis was to refer to possible reactions to stress, impacts and, finally, advice on how to cope with this factor. This bachelor thesis is divided into two main parts. The first part deals with the definition of basic terms such as palliative care, death, dying, accompanying the dying and psychological burden for families of the dying. Besides, it describes psychology of this specific situation and other circumstances concerning death, dying, grief, mourning, and mourning determinants stages. To achieve the objective of this bachelor thesis, the qualitative research method with semi-structured interview technique was used. The respondents were members of one family wife, father, brother and children of the deceased. It has been six years since the unanticipated death of the loved one. The respondents were selected on purpose. Based on the investigation results, social family functioning and impact of the death of a loved one to the family were described. In accordance with the research, it can be claimed that the grief after the death of a loved one is for the bereaved family members lifelong. The death of the father caused changes in the social functioning of the family, in the relations among the family members and also changed the attitude to life of the bereaved family members. The research shows that the bereaved family members had very good relationship, which even consolidated after the experience of unexpected loss of the father. It was also discovered that each family member coped with the bereavement in their own way and that it had a different impact on each of them. In the conclusion of the thesis, there is a summary of interview results. The research shows that none of the family members were offered neither professional nor lay support, which would be appreciated, as they now re-evaluate. Support not only in the acute grief is very important for the bereaved as it has an impact on the whole process of mourning.
