Coordinated Rehabilitation in the Nursing Home
ZATLOUKALOVÁ, Taťána
The diploma thesis deals with the use of coordinated rehabilitation in a nursing home. The main goal of the thesis was to find out the possibilities and limits of providing coordinated rehabilitation in a nursing home from the perspective of members of a multidisciplinary team. In the theoretical part of the thesis, the basic concepts were defined. In the practical part, the main research question was answered: How do the members of the multidisciplinary team perceive the provision of coordinated rehabilitation in a nursing home? A qualitative research strategy, a questioning method and a semi-structured interview technique were chosen for the research survey. Data analysis was performed using elements of grounded theory. The research set consisting of 8 informants was selected through intentional selection and purposeful sampling. The research showed that the interviewed social workers are aware of coordinated rehabilitation, in contrast to the health and care workers, who perceive it only as medical rehabilitation. After clarifying the concept, these workers were also able to name and classify activities into individual components of coordinated rehabilitation. The research shows that informants perceive the improvement of care, provision of comprehensive care, effective cooperation of a multidisciplinary team, transmission of complete information about clients, provision of experts, education and expansion of the range of activities and therapies as possibilities for providing coordinated rehabilitation. As limits of the provision of coordinated rehabilitation, informants perceive the absence of legislative definition, which causes the lack of information about this concept, lack of funds and methodological procedures for coordinated rehabilitation, reluctance to cooperate, employee overload, lack of time and professional staff. The results of the research will serve as a basis for improving the quality of care provided using the concept of coordinated rehabilitation in a selected nursing home.
