"The experience of alcohol-addicted clients after institutional treatment"
Andělová, Magdalena ; Libra, Jiří (advisor) ; Vacek, Jaroslav (referee)
Bases: In institutional care, the clients are taken out of their natural ambient. In safe institutional ambience, the abstinence is easier. During the institutional treatment, the client should get new overview of his addiction, enforce his decision for a change and reevaluate his lifestyle. The clients often return back to their unsatisfying living conditions. The addiction influences all domains of human existence, therefore it is important that clients get the care in accordance with their needs during and after the institutional treatment. Aims: The main aim of this thesis is to find how the alcohol addicted clients, the clients repetitively hospitalized for the relapses, lived through the retrieve into the normal life after the institutional treatment. The other aim is to find usual problems that arise after the treatment and reasons for the relapse. Moreover, the question is what the experience with the aftercare care is and what is the main support on their way to recovery. I have focused on the period between the first and the last treatment. The principal research questions: Which factors influenced the relapse of the clients? Other research questions: What are the experiences with the aftercare programs? Which factors do the clients feel as supporting on their way to recovery?...

NEKOLOVÁ, Andrea
The bachelor thesis is focused on the role of a social worker when preparing children for integration into society after leaving institutional care, specifically children's home. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part describes the system of substitute institutional care in the Czech Republic and individual institutions of institutional care. The causes and risks of placing a child in a children's home are mentioned. Furthermore, attention is paid to the role of the social worker in the children's home and the preparation of children for leaving the children's home. The forms of aftercare for young adults are listed. The aim of the thesis was to determine how a social worker in a children's home participates in preparing children for leaving the institution and their subsequent integration into the society and which methods and techniques a social worker uses during her work. Another objective was to focus on the attitudes of children to integration into the society after leaving institutional care and to their awareness of aftercare possibilities. The readiness of young adults in certain areas needed for their independent life after leaving the children's home is also investigated. The qualitative type of research and the technique of semi-structured interview were used to carry out the research part of the thesis. The research group consisted of children and social workers from the children's home in Humpolec and from the children's home Senožaty. The results were processed using the open coding method. Through the research, it was to be ascertained whether children are adequately prepared for everyday life, or in which areas more focus is needed on integration into society. Research results can be used as a feedback for social workers in children's homes and other institutional facilities. They can serve as an aid when working with young adults leaving children's homes.

Aftercare of patients with brain damage
OLIVOVÁ, Tereza
This thesis is focused on the problematics of aftercare in patients with brain damage. The thesis has an informative character and its aim is to introduce the problematics to the readers and give them valuable advices. This topic has come to the fore of the interest of the professional and general public especially in recent years. Partly because numbers of brain damage especially those of the traumas are increasing, but also because of the development of acute medicine, which is nowadays at a very high level, there is an increase in the number of patients who survive brain damage. However, the problem is a large quantity of these patients have permanent consequences, and they and their closest neighbors have to deal with. These permanent consequences are manifested as cognitive impairment, impairment of sensory functions, physical disability and changes in behavior and emotions. Following care in patients with brain damage is a major problem in our country. We see the problem especially in the continuity and availability of care for locally available services and rehabilitation care for these individuals. The continuity of care after the patient is released from the acute bed is very low and sometimes chaotic. To obtain the necessary informations for thesis and to achieve the goals, it was necessary to study a large amount of professional literature. Used sources are specialized Czech and foreign literature, professional journals and articles searched in professional databases. This thesis should show the possible problems of patient aftercare with brain damage. The results of the thesis can be used as a subsidy to professional conferences, seminars or courses to deal with the issue. The thesis could increase public interest about this topic.

TAUCHENOVÁ, Jana
Present situation The theoretical part of the diploma thesis is divided into four separate chapters. The first chapter deals with cerebrovascular accident (CVA). Another chapter describes the consequences of illness in various areas of human life. The third chapter defines the concept of follow-up care and the fourth chapter deals with diagnosed obesity. Aims of the work and research questions The aim of the diploma thesis is to map out the influence of obesity on follow-up care of patients after cerebrovascular accident. Research questions: 1. How does obesity affect patient mobility after CVA? 2. How does obesity affect the hygienic care of patients after CVA? 3. How does obesity affect normal daily activities of CVA patients? 4. What is the impact of obesity on developing self-sufficiency in CVA patients? Quality research was done through semi-structured interviews with CVA patients who were hospitalized in the aftercare department. Other interviews were conducted with general nurses providing nursing care to CVA patients. Research group The research group consisted of 11 general nurses working at different follow-up care hospital stations, and 16 patients who were hospitalized at these departments after the CVA. Results By analyzing the information obtained, it has been determined that obesity affects the patients mobility especially after the cerebrovascular event. At the same time, it represents a physical and psychological burden for nursing staff, but also for patients. The problem has been the fact, that most patients do not perceive obesity as a condition affecting their whole life. Conclusion The diploma thesis has provided insight into the problematic of the influence of obesity on the follow-up care in patients after cerebrovascular accident. The findings should lead to a reflection on the issue of prevention of obesity in terms of both CVA risk and follow-up care, but also the need for educational activities.
