Self defense for medical rescuers
 ŠILHAVÝ, Václav
Bachelor thesis titled "Self-defence for paramedics" concerns itself with opportunities of self-defence of paramedics in the Czech Republic. In the theoretical part this work focuses on contemporary structure of ambulance service and a composition of the ambulance crews in the Czech Republic. It also defines the "self-defence" term and delimits the difference between martial art and self-defence, its aspects and divisions. The theoretical base of the work also considers the psychological factors of the self-defence, explains the conflict and aggression and describes a body stress reaction. It also defines the legal terms related to the self-defence issues. The final chapter of the theoretical part shows model principles used in self-defence by J. Cooper. Practical part was elaborated in a form of qualitative research using the half-structured interview method. There is a comparation of the statements of nine members of the paramedic team in the South-bohemia. The major target of this work is establishing the statements of paramedics for self-defence and discover a level and possibilities of paramedic self-defence. Using these targets there were established two research questions: Which possibilities offers an employer in this area? Which possibilities do paramedics use and on which level? The research results show, that just a minimum of the informants concerns themselves with a self-defence. It can be caused by low appearance of aggressive patient contact. The most of informants mentioned that they experienced attacks very rarely. The employer does not provide any possibilities to improve the self-defence skills and level of their skills is not high, despite the fact that they get through some education during their studies. According the research the majority of the informants would like to attend any course or educate themselves in this area. This thesis could be used like a base for another research or like an educational text for final year students of paramedic programme.
