The thesis also includes chapters dealing with nursing management, medical documentation and evaluating the scale of a patient after a stroke. For the practical part there was a set goal, determine the working conditions for nurses who provide the patients rehabilitative treatment after a stroke. There were four main hypotheses defined, which were the subject of an anonymus questionnaire: Hypothesis - H1: There are only positioning aids available for nurses to provide rehabilitative treatment. Hypothesis - H2: Nurses are documenting the rehabilitative treatment regularly used in the nursing process. Hypothesis - H3: Nurses state that the problem of providing rehabilitative care is the lack of time. Hypothesis-H4: Results of rehabilitative nursing care are monitored by the nursing management. As additional research investigation case reports have been formulated with the Barthel index in four patients. Results of the research shows that nurses are using not only positioning aids, but other available tools as well. Rehabilitative care nurses regularly document treatments, especially in nursing documentation. Nurses stated that there is lack of time for providing rehabilitative nursing and nurses state that the treatment is monitored by nursing management.
