Home birth from a women's point of view
DVOŘÁKOVÁ, Kristýna
This bachelor's thesis deals with the view of women on births in the home environment and their own experiences with home births. The theoretical part characterizes the issue of home births by their advantages, disadvantages, complications, and most importantly, the role of the midwife during birth and in the period after birth in the home environment. Additionally, the thesis explains the legislative framework for home births in the legislative Czech Republic. The practical part of the bachelor thesis defines two goals. The first one was to find out what are the most common reasons for women's choice to give birth at home and the second goal was to find out how women prepared for this birth. The research investigation was carried out by qualitative research method. Moreover, the practical part of the bachelor's thesis uses qualitative research using semi-structured interviews with women who had at least one planned birth at home. The participants were obtained using the snowball sampling method. The interviews with the informants took place during February and March 2024. The interviews were recorded on a dictaphone, transcribed, and then analysed using the pencil and paper method. In total, 3 main categories and 15 subcategories were created. The research shows that several reasons influenced the decision of the informants to give birth at home. Those were mainly personal negative experiences of the informants with medical personnel, incorrect approach, and communication. Others mistrusted doctors or medical professionals. The informants also mentioned the importance of preserving the naturalness of childbirth without unnecessary interventions and respecting their wishes. It is also evident from the research that women did not prepare for childbirth any more than for childbirth in a maternity hospital. A large part of the informants prepared mainly by self-study about childbirth, and they searched for information on natural birth in professional literature and on the Internet. For almost all informants, it was essential to secure a community midwife. The informants also stated that during pregnancy, they visited their midwife for regular check-ups and consulted with her about their childbirth visions. The bachelor's thesis could be a practical resource for both the lay and the professional public, and the results could be presented at conferences for midwives.

The Body (Intimity)
Kojetská, Monika ; Pepe, Dita (referee) ; Hlavenka, Tomáš (advisor)
With this set I am following my previous work in which I was occupying with woman body. I catch body in intimate moments – but I encode it, so it is almost not obvious. I use light irony and exaggeration in my pictures. In this set I work with woman body as a object of voyer, who observes the woman with a peephole, lense, field glass or camera. But I keep it all in abstract and stylized position. I work with code, thanks to which we at first perceive the picture as colourful and shaped painting forms that gradually show womans body. I use bigger ammount of abstract, when forms of the body balance at the edge between figural and abstract. I enjoy the moment when there is not everything visible at the first sight in the picture. I want the viewer to look for the body, observe it and explore it. I do not aim for catching the beauty of the body or is real visual shape. I work with light irony of voyeur looks by using some deformations of the body parts.

Kirsch, Stela ; Bosá, Monika (advisor) ; Klokočková, Šárka (referee)
The presented diploma thesis focuses on the identification of gender-based specifics in health care, specifically in the management of a health care institution as a caring institution. In the theoretical part, we defined feminism and feminist views, the concept of gender, medicine as a feminized environment, the legislative definition of work in health care in terms of management and, finally, stereotypes were defined. In the conducted qualitative research, we used unstructured interviews with health professionals (nurses and doctors) from the Czech and Slovak Republics, and we examined the gender-based specifics in health care. Research has shown that gender specificities in health care are emerging, in the areas of division of labor, impacts on job choices, equality and inequality, occupation of position and in provision of care. At the end of the thesis I presented recommendations for the use of management tools as a source of overcoming barriers to equality in the context of a caring institution. Key words Feminism, phenomenon of feminization, health care, woman, gender, caring institution, management, gender-based specifics, health care professional, nurse, doctor.
