Complementarity principle in Physics and its role at experts preparation in the area of population protection
ČECH, František
This diploma thesis on the application of logical, empirical and statistical methods defined the role of the complementarity principle in the preparation of experts in the field of the protection of population in the framework of a quantitative research. The complementarity principle is characterized in the thesis in general (working with two expressions, both of them are necessary to explain the nature of the problem but cannot be used simultaneously, e.g. expressions "analysis" and "synthesis"). The diploma thesis then defined the physical aspect of the complementarity principle the wave-corpuscular dualism, the position and the momentum, the energy and the time. The comparison of the basics of the protection of population with the structure of the physical aspect of the complementarity principle followed. The performed comparison was adjusted to the needs and possibilities of future experts in the field of the protection of population on the basis of the theory of the curriculum process. The steps are clear from the set of objectives which were fulfilled gradually in the thesis: 1) To systematically describe the general form of the complementarity principle and its physical application from the point of view of the theory of the curriculum process. 2) To create a structure of the system of emergencies from the point of view of a scientific field of the protection of population and to focus on its educational aspect for the preparation of experts. 3) To perform the comparison of the physical aspect and emergencies with the general form of the complementarity principle. To transfer the findings, a theory of curriculum process was used. The link between a more generally approached complementarity principle and the protection of population was explained in the framework of a conceptual curriculum. The theory connecting these two different fields is the more generally approached complementarity principle and especially Bohr's complementarity principle linking not only the wave-corpuscular dualism but also Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. The physical aspect of emergencies was adjusted to the possibilities and needs of students (the intended curriculum) and written down in an educational text which was provided to students (the project curriculum). The practicality of the educational test was verified by an educational test the results of which were statistically processed (implemented curriculum). The statistical analysis of the test results confirmed the second hypothesis of this work. "The knowledge of future experts in the field of the protection of population will have, from the point of view of the role of the complementarity principle in their preparation, a theoretical division which will be close to the normal division." By confirming this hypothesis, the correctness and applicability of the curriculum process were confirmed as it was assumed by the first hypothesis: "Using the stages of a curriculum process, an educational basis of the role of the complementarity principle can be created within a quantitative research." The contributions of this work can be summarized by following points: 1) The use of an educational text in the preparation of experts in the field of the protection of population (a practical contribution of this diploma thesis). 2) The improvement of the applicability of the theory of the curriculum process in the field of the protection of population which has not been researched so far (the improvement of the theory of the curriculum process). 3) The definition of the link of the physical aspect of the complementarity principle to the general form of this principle (the theoretical contribution of this diploma thesis).

Formalisms of quantum and relativistic physics in exploring the causes of emergencies
JANOŠÍKOVÁ, Martina
Currently emergencies coming from different reasons and are caused by various factors. In my diploma thesis is focusing on the causes of emergencies coming from quantum and relativistic physics. Among such emergencies are the ligting and the radiation accident. Lightning causes fires in the landscape and its light identification can be explained by the quantum mechanics of the photon, the wave-particle duality of the photon. In the case of a radiation accident occur radioactivity and ionizing radiation. This leakage can be described using the special theory of theory of relativity. On the basis of this informationwas created an educational text that was adapted to the capabilities of students of Civil crisis preparedness.

Emergencies related with using narcotic and psychotropic substances in South Bohemian Region
PROFANT, Václav
I chose the topic "Emergencies related with using narcotic and psychotropic substances in South Bohemian Region" for my bachelor thesis. These events are extraordinarily dangerous and overall abuse drugs threatens the healthy development of the whole society. The main objective of empirical quantitative research was descriptively chart development trend of emergencies related with using narcotic and psychotropic substances in South Bohemian Region. Availability of literature to the topic was considerably limited. In the theoretical part I focused on theoretical background, basic concepts regarding with emergencies related with using narcotic and psychotropic substances. Further I wrote overview about the most famous abused drugs and their classification. At the end of this part I mention laws and regulations regarding drugs. The practical part consists of empirical quantitative research whose the main objective was descriptively chart development trend of emergencies related with using narcotic and psychotropic substances in South Bohemian Region. For the method I chose content analysis of the text which I made in a quantitative way. By determining statistical population of texts I analyzed official documents - public available official statistical data of criminality of Police of the Czech Republic and data provided of Police Presidium of the Czech Republic, Department of Computer Science and Information Technology Operation. The research survey in the term of 5 years - 2010 - 2015 I answered on a research problem, defined by using research questions. I concluded that some emergencies are trully committed under the influence of narcotics and psychotropic substances. The research demonstrated upward developmental trend of emergencies committed under the influence of narcotics and psychotropic substances. Finally I summarize the results of bachelor thesis and I recommend its use in practice.

Staff awareness of social service providers the South Bohemian region of incidents
HANZALOVÁ, Edita
The thesis deals with the level of knowledge of staff members of social service providers in South Bohemia region in case of emergencies response. Residential social care facilities that provide care for disabled people were randomly selected. These facilities provide care to clients who are permanently dependent on other people´s assistance, in this case assistance from staff members. Therefore, the staff should be sufficiently informed concerning emergencies and appropriate response to such emergencies. The social services facilities providing residential care for disabled people include: senior homes, homes for people with special needs, homes for disabled, respite services, weekday boarding facilities, sheltered accommodation and social rehabilitation. The theoretical part of the thesis reviews the concept of emergencies and their classification. These include natural disasters and emergencies caused by human activities. Selected emergencies are presented in more detail using the Emergency Preparedness Plan of South Bohemia. Another chapter of the thesis, very relevant to this topic, is the description of social care system. Residential social care sector providing care to disabled people is characterised. There are total 81 facilities that meet the criteria in the South Bohemia territory. In the practical part, 30 of these facilities, randomly selected, were contacted. The questionnaire was filled and returned by 20 facilities. The aim of the thesis corresponded with the research question: "What is the level of knowledge of staff members of social service providers in South Bohemia region what to do in case of emergency?" We have chosen a questionnaire form in selected facilities to respond the research question and to accomplish the aim of the thesis. Two types of questionnaires were designed. One questionnaire was intended for directors or head managers of the social services providers. It included total 15 questions. The questionnaire for the group of directors and head managers in the social care facilities used PAPI (Paper and Pen Interviewing) method. We have also designed a questionnaire for staff members of social services providers. This questionnaire was divided in 3 parts and included 28 questions. The first part contained 4 questions finding the characteristics of the respondent. The second part contained 16 questions. This part determined the level of respondent´s general knowledge concerning emergencies. The last, third part, contained 8 questions, that aimed at the social care facilities staff members self-assessment. The questionnaire results have been analysed using charts including their interpretation. The level of social services staff member awareness was assessed in case of individual types of emergencies, and subsequently in groups of emergencies. Groups of emergencies included dangerous chemicals, civilian protection, fire, infectious disease outbreak, radiation incident, flood, evacuation, and first aid. The level of 80% of correct answers was set to be the threshold of good knowledge by staff members. The questionnaire results suggest that social services staff members are not sufficiently informed what to do in case of emergencies. The margin of success was reached in the question what purpose has the warning sound "general alert", and in the question what is acute radiation disease. In the group of emergencies, the level of good knowledge was not reached in any item. The thesis also assessed the level of preparedness of individual social services facilities for an emergency. All of the participating social services providers have a Fire evacuation plan, and majority do evacuation drills. The thesis concludes that social services staff members are insufficiently informed concerning emergencies, and that social services providers insufficiently train their staff members as well as their clients concerning recommended response to an emergency.

Medical staff´s awareness of emergencies in selected health care facilities
DVOŘÁK, Ladislav
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to evaluate the extent to which health care personnel from selected South Bohemia region health care facilities is prepared to emergency situation. The research has been conducted in 7 largest health care facilities in South Bohemia region at Hospital České Budějovice, Plc., Hospital Tábor, Plc., Hospital Jindřichův Hradec, Plc., Hospital Český Krumlov, Plc., Hospital Strakonice, Plc., Hospital Písek, Plc., Hospital Prachatice, Plc.. Since within these health care facilities, there are present thousands of patients on daily basis, there is, without any shadow of doubt, need for each member of health care personnel to be well informed not only about possible emergency situations but also about how general public is warned when an emergency situation takes place and also how to behave when these emergency situations happen. The theoretical framework focuses on emergency situations. It contains the definition of emergency situations as it is defined by Act 239/2000 Coll., on Integrated Rescue System, where the emergency situations are outlined and there are also mentioned the causing factors. Based on the information from Regional emergency plan there are described some emergency situations in further detail. For example these emergency situations can be floods, that are one of the most common emergency situation from the past years in South Bohemia region, emergency situations caused by radiation, conflagrations, leakage of dangerous chemical substances, disease outbreaks or terrorism, which is the threat that is to be taken more and more seriously based on current development in Europe. The theoretical framework also describes health care facilities. There is described the term of "health care facility" as defined by Act 372/2011 Coll., on Health Care Services Quality. In order to emphasize the importance of public protection in health care facilities, there is also a summary of the number of health care facilities in the Czech Republic. The next chapter of theoretical framework mentions more detailed information about individual hospitals selected for the research on health care personnel knowledgeableness. To answer the research question "How familiar is health care personnel from selected health care facilities from the area of South Bohemia region with the cause of emergency situation?" a large questionnaire study has been conducted from each of the 7 selected hospitals. The results have been evaluated and depicted using Microsoft Excel software. The statistical evaluation has been done by using ANOVA method that compared the relation between respondents' final score and individual criteria (gender, age, highest educational level within hospital where respondent worked). The results of the survey show that the average familiarity of health care personnel is capped at 72.74 %. The researcher set 80% passing limit which means that the level of familiarity is unsatisfactory. The questions category, with the lowest score (59.24%), is population protection. Since 79.5 % of respondents do not know what the warning signal "General warning" sounds like, there is a need for regular training of health care personnel on Public protection. In the areas where there are regular trainings provided by law there are significantly better results. To give an example, in the area of fire protection, there have been 74.37 % of questions answered correctly on average. Whilst this is still below the passing rate (80%), as defined by researcher, the results are significantly better when compared with other question areas, which shows that regular training increases employees´ knowledge. Other results showed the correlation between individual characteristics and overall performance. In conclusion, the health care personnel does not have satisfactory amount of information, which means that there is a need to set rules and framework for regular trainings on public protection for health care professional.

Proposal of EMS of the Central Bohemian region preparedness for managing multiple victim incidents and disasters
BATÍK, Daniel
This thesis deals with issue of preparedness of EMS Central Bohemia on multiple victims' emergencies. In addition to preparedness of EMS Central Bohemia the thesis also analyses the system of training and education of employees in the management of mass casualty. The theoretical part discusses the legislation on EMS, files from Catalogue of model activities related to this issue, coordination of parts of Integrated Rescue System (IRS) on site of event and role of EMS on-site emergencies. Further, the specifics of EMS Central Bohemia are described, the development of EMS Central Bohemia since its establishment (inception) to the present, organizational structure, mass casualty's emergencies preparedness, EMS dispatch (medical operations center), system of emergency calls management and finally Traumatology plan of EMS Central Bohemia. Aim of the thesis was based on analysis of the current status to propose optimal system of deployment and activation of forces and resources, and to propose system of employees' education and system of testing exercises. Based on research, SWOT analysis was developed (composed) and the results were compared with pre-established hypotheses. From obtained findings the comprehensive overview of forces and resources of EMS Central Bohemia region for mass casualty management was prepared. In particular, the number of available resources on duty, system of backups, modules and containers for mass casualties and their deployment. When evaluating resources for mass casualty management also an economic aspect was taken into consideration, as well as ambulance crews' knowledge on possible use of these resources. Based on this review, it was found that in terms of securing forces and resources, the readiness of EMS Central Bohemia is appropriate. Hereby the hypothesis nr.1, which presumed that EMS Central Bohemia has sufficient number of forces and resources to deal with emergencies with multiple victims has been confirmed. The hypothesis nr.2, which presumed that forces and resources deployment is not ideal, on the contrary has not been confirmed. In this thesis the current status of employees' preparation for mass casualty was also discussed. It was found that the base of this preparation is Course for leading employee of rescue service, organized by Department of crisis preparedness. At the same time the conception is set that after first four pilot courses this education system will be applied to particular areas, thereby should be secured sufficient education of crews of EMS Central Bohemia region in this issue. Other education options were also defined, which are now already available in the organization. The hypothesis nr.3, which presumed that system of preparation and training focused on mass casualty is not appropriate, have thus managed to disprove. However it was found that although a clear conception and education options in this field exist, it's not well known to ordinary employees. One of the conclusions is therefore also a recommendation to managers of EMS Central Bohemia to more inform their employees about these options. One of the goals of this thesis was to suggest a system of learning and testing exercises. This proposal is described in the conclusion the proposed number of testing exercises is at least 4 times a year. The total number of employees of the organization and the number of those who may have the capacity and operational reasons to participate on similar exercises has been taken into consideration here. The education system was found appropriate, only with above mentioned objection regarding to awareness of ordinary employees about it.

Area analysis in term of possible emergencies occurrance
VACKOVÁ, Denisa
Hand in hand with the evolution of mankind and the improvement of scientific and technical progress of the society new risks and threats occurred, regardless of more suitable living conditions. At the beginning there were only dangers caused by nature, but in the course of time new threats of anthropogenic origin emerged. Even in the Czech Republic emergency risks or critical situations may appear. Besides serious road accidents and natural disasters like floods, fires, hurricanes, erosions, and snow avalanches there is a big probability of disasters caused by leak of chemical substances. Therefore a timely prevention is important in order to avoid such events. In the Czech Republic a system of crisis management was set up to deal with prevention and solution of emergencies and critical situations. In my work I focused on the methods used for analysis of the area of South Bohemia, because they provide us with a survey of risks and threats in a particular area and may result in decreasing of these risks. This work will be used to work out an alarm plan of an integrated safety system of South Bohemian region. It will form one of the supplements of the study that is now being processed and that concerns the area placement of fire brigades in South Bohemian region.
