The nurse's role in the complex process of transplantation
HEPLOVÁ, Monika
The diploma thesis deals with the issues of nursing care and the nurse?s position in the complex process of transplantation. Transplantation treatment becomes more important in the course of time. There are such situations that there is no other choice of restoring and saving the health of the sick person but to transplant. The complex process of transplantation is a chain of successive operations in which not only many doctors but also other medical and paramedical staff are involved and they constantly interact not only with the patient. Classically, the largest group in providing patient care is general nurses who assume the responsibility for the direct provision of nursing care, work independently and are responsible for the care provided. Their work requires a deep knowledge of the branch and many professional activities without suppressing their original mission. Today?s nurse is a full member of the team and the doctor?s partner in practicing his or her profession. The theoretical part deals comprehensively with the issues of the removal of organs especially from deceased donors, their transplantation and legislation in the Czech Republic and especially with the role of a nurse which she has in this process. An objective of the research survey was to map whether a nurse really felt to be the doctor?s partner in this challenging branch of providing nursing care and what their attitudes towards practicing their own profession in this branch were and to map the extensiveness of their knowledge and educational opportunities in these issues. Another objective was to map the attitudes of patients themselves towards care in the transplantation treatment process. In the research survey a quantitative method was used and applied by distributing questionnaires to general nurses working at a department of transplantation medicine. The results of the questionnaire survey were processed to create well-arranged tables. The qualitative part of the research survey was carried out through interviews with patients who are in the transplantation treatment process. The interviews were processed in writing and the results were summarized in mind maps.
THE ASPECTS OF THE WORK OF NURSES- DEMOTIVATING ELEMENTS WITHIN THE WORK OF NURSES
HEPLOVÁ, Monika
The present paper deals with aspects of the profession of a nurse and the demotivating elements in the profession which makes up the most numerous group in the health care system. The mission of a nurse in the society is to help individuals, families and groups to satisfy their actual needs and to reach their maximum physical, mental and social possibility in agreement with the environment that she lives in. The system of providing health care is changing as well as the relationship of the society to health care workers. General nurses undertake responsibility for direct provision of nursing care, they work independently and they are responsible for the provided care. Their role changes to a full-value team member, to a physician's partner in performing the profession. We were interested in how nurses perceive the change. What are the biggest demotivating factors in the profession and on the contrary what is the motivation not to leave this demanding occupation.
