Presence
Kolářová, Vendula ; Aikens, MA Nick (referee) ; Jakalová, Zuzana (advisor)
The master's thesis deals with the shift from visual to multisensory perception. In this context, it works with the concept of comfort, which it applies to both physical and mental aspects of the experience of visitors to art institutions. Creating a sense of comfort is important not only at the end of the process - that is, evoking that feeling in visitors - but also in the creative process. The work uses the environment of wellness (spa) resorts and is based on the growing popularity of relaxation facilities. It uses various clichés that are associated with this environment. Galleries and spa resorts are a leisure activity. Both environments offer care, although each in a different way. In the wellness resorts, others take care of our body. In a museum or gallery, they care more about the mental side, but we still feel that we have to make some effort so that we can be cared for in this way. The diploma thesis is a real, created space, the basic layout and equipment of which are inspired by the sauna. All objects in the space, but also its other "layers" acting on the senses of visitors serve to make people feel comfortable even in an environment that is in a sense inhospitable. Sauna benches invite you to sit down, stored bathrobes offer the feeling of luxury and instantly available care that we know from wellness resorts. The space is filled with the scent released from the diffuser. The last component of the space is the "meditation" audio, which accompanies visitors both in the real space in which it is located and in the abstract space of the scent.

Quality of life of for seniors in residential social service facilities during the covid - 19 pandemic period
Ryšavá, Kateřina ; Jarolímová, Eva (advisor) ; Poláčková, Jana (referee)
Teoretická část/ Úvod V nedávné době se lidstvo potýkalo s příchodem virového onemocnění covid-19, a to v rozsahu pandemie. Nemoc a riziko nákazy se nedotýkalo pouze zdravotního stavu nás všech, ale zasahovalo významně do sociální oblasti, včetně psychologického na jednotlivce. Například, kvůli vládním zákazům, které z velké míry pozastavily chod naší země, byl narušen životní rytmus lidí, a to jak v životě osobním taktéž profesionálním. Řada rodin přišla o své výdělky, děti se nemohly setkávat se svými vrstevníky, což je pro vývoj dětí jednoznačně škodlivé, příbuzní se nemohli navštěvovat, staří lidé nemohli vídat své vnuky. Dá se tedy říci, že pandemie měla výrazně negativní psychologický dopad na jedince a celou společnost. Není předmětem této práce hodnotit, zda tato rozhodnutí, a v takovém rozsahu, měla spíše pozitivní efekt, protože měla na zřeteli zdravotní stav obyvatelstva nebo spíše dosáhla opaku. Takové hodnocení probíhá a analyzovat dopady této pandemie na společnost bude i věcí budoucnosti. Tato nemoc měla u mnoha pacientů lehký proběh, u některých tomu tak bohužel nebylo. Byly vymezeny tzv. rizikové skupiny co se zvýšeného rizika nákazy týče i průběhu onemocnění a jeho dopadu na lidský organismus. Obecně se dá říci, že zvýšené riziko onemocnění covid- 19 kromě dětí nejvíce postihlo seniory (z...

Harmonisation of work and family life - the perspective of Czech and European law
Fantová, Karolína ; Koldinská, Kristina (advisor) ; Munková, Gabriela (referee)
Harmonisation of work and family life - the perspective of Czech and European law Harmonising work and family life is a very topical issue today. Employees no longer want to choose between work and care; they want the possibility to do both. The legal framework responds to this need - it creates conditions that support this harmonisation. This has a positive impact on productivity and employee satisfaction. Moreover, balancing work and family life positively influences societal factors, such as demographic stability and sustainable economic growth, making it a politically intriguing topic as well. The thesis offers a comprehensive view of the work and family life harmonisation in the context of the current legislation in the Czech Republic and within the European Union, focusing especially on caregivers. The main goal of the thesis is to provide readers with a comprehensive overview of current legislation concerning the harmonisation of work and family life, particularly focusing on flexible forms of employment, obstacles at work from the employee's side, and financial security in situations where the employee cannot work due to caring for another person. The thesis further examines European law standards and their impact on domestic legislation, noting also the non-legislative initiatives of the...

Homelessness and dying
Vondruška, Ondřej ; Ulrichová, Monika (advisor) ; Pěnkava, Pavel (referee)
The diploma thesis presents the personal experience of homeless people who have had someone close to them die while living on the streets. It introduces us to their ways of living on the streets, their relationship with their loved ones and the circumstances of their deaths. It reflects on what changed in their lives after the death of their loved one and whether their loved ones had the opportunity to mend their relationships, put things in order and fulfil their wishes before their death. The theoretical part defines basic concepts related to homelessness and concepts related to dying. The practical part contains transcripts of interviews with homeless people who have been in this situation. The final part analyses the interviews. It summarizes that homeless people did not have the opportunity to arrange their affairs before they died, due to the fact that their deaths were quick and unexpected. Their social situation prevented them from doing so and they were not aware of any available services. Interviews show that they expressed a wish to meet their loved ones and try to mend relations with them, which they did not manage to do. Neither their partner nor their friends had the opportunity to say goodbye at the funeral and they were unable to find out if and how the funeral took place. The survivors were...

Intergenerational solidarity in the time of coronavirus pandemia
Vondrová, Vanesa ; Jeřábek, Hynek (advisor) ; Remr, Jiří (referee)
The diploma thesis examines the changes in intergenerational solidarity and the form of care provided by informal caregivers to elderly individuals during the COVID-19 pandemic. The rapidly changing situation around COVID-19 was captured through a planned but ultimately unrealized longitudinal panel design, which would have allowed capturing its dynamic nature. The method of data collection for the research was a questionnaire survey. In-depth interviews were conducted with a selected sample of participants, including caregivers and elderly recipients of care. These interviews took the form of semi-structured interviews, allowing flexibility in exploring relevant aspects. The collected qualitative data were analysed using content analysis. Despite the unrealized plan, the thesis provides a comprehensive view of the changing intergenerational solidarity during the pandemic. Findings revealed that the pandemic influenced intergenerational solidarity among caregivers and elderly recipients. Shared perceptions and concerns led to higher levels of solidarity. Isolation did not necessarily weaken solidarity, as many families used digital technologies to maintain connections and support. Additionally, intensive care contributed to higher intergenerational solidarity and engagement. Respondents...

The sources of happiness of seniors living in a retirement home
Kovalová, Diana ; Valentová, Hana (advisor) ; Presslerová, Pavla (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the happiness of seniors living in a nursing home. It focuses primarily on what are the core and main sources of happiness that people in a nursing home draw upon. As the population grows older, issues of care and happiness in the elderly are becoming more and more pressing and important, when it is a topic that will one day have an effect on everyone. It is therefore important to explore this area in more detail and to find out the main areas of people's lives where they really feel happy and help them to cope with the difficult moments that old age and the decline of strength bring with it (poorer health, diminishing social ties, depression, fear of death, etc.). Last but not least, there is an effort to show how much the environment in which the elderly live has an impact on them and how important it is to improve the quality and care of retirement homes to maximise the satisfaction of the people who live there. The thesis is divided into two main parts. The theoretical part introduces the topic of old age and ageing. How the period of old age is periodized, what are the manifestations of ageing and how the individual adapts to this period. Then there is the topic of happiness, its characteristics, concept and what are its sources. Last but not least, there are...
