FILÍPKOVÁ, Kateřina
The bachelor thesis deals with an issue of providing care to Covid 19 clients in homes with special regime. The theoretical part of the thesis is focused on the Covid 19 disease. The main aim of the empiric part was to map the care of clients with Covid 19 in the home with a special regime in the period from the pandemic beginning up to the current situation. On the basis of this aim, a research question was set, what was the method of Covid 19 clients care in the home with a special regime in the period form the pandemic beginning up to the current situation. A qualitative research construct was selected for a data collection in a form of interviewing. The data collection was implemented by means of a half-structured interview that included 21 questions. The research group consisted of 7 female respondents from a group of nurses and 2 female respondents from a group of senior managers, who were selected by means of deliberate sampling. The criterion was a minimal length of 3 year of practical work in the institution. Based on the data analysis, 3 categories and 11 sub-categories were created through an open coding and pencil-and-paper method. It results from the research construct that the care was provided on the basis of official measures of the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, using barrier nursing techniques. The main distinction for the female respondents during the nursing were particularly fast changes of clients´ health and mental conditions. It was found out that there were various methods of clients´s isolation during the pandemic. The most frequently mentioned one was a Covid unit usage. The main principles of the care are isolation and PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for the female respondents. An important part of the care was prevention by means of vaccination. The pandemic also influenced activation activities that are an integral part of the care in a home with specific regime. The obtained data reveal that it was a communication with the clients that was the most demanding part of the care. Also the sanitary care was qualified as equally demanding. The Covid-19 disease is relatively new and so it is no wonder that there appeared certain problematic areas during providing the care. Among these the female respondents placed the lack of information especially in the context with currency of the pandemic as well as the risks of contagion despite the PPE usage. The female respondents´ content with the care organisation results from the care evaluation itself. The important problem in the care was especially the lack of PPE and personnel for ensuring the care. The thesis may be used as a study material for non-doctoral medical studies.
