Anticipating versus reality of work of nurses in cardiosurgery department
BÁRTOVÁ, Marie
In my bachelor paper I dealt with expectation of nurses before their entry in practice and confrontation with the reality of work at hospital units. Expectation plays an important part in coping with the nursing occupation. There are many factors that can influence it both in a positive and negative way. The fast pace in current medical establishments requires that a nurse should assess, predict and evaluate the state of patients and that she should react to it within several minutes so that the care for the ill is most efficient and coordinated. Such a task is difficult for every-one but for a nurse disappointed by the health system it is an impossible task. Therefore it is important that there is a correspondence between expectations and the final reality of work.

Health insurance and settlemento of nursing and rehabilitative care provided in institutions of social services
VOBORNÍKOVÁ, Gabriela
The topic of my diploma thesis is Health insurance and reimbursement for nursing services and rehabilitation care provided in social services facilities. I chose this topic not only because social services and related fields are currently very topical but also because I wanted to find out what changed whit regard to social services facilities with the arrival of the possibility of funding nursing and rehabilitation care. I wanted to explore opinions of people who work in this field and encounter such issues on a daily basis. Since the possibility of reimbursement for nursing and rehabilitation care has been in the Czech Republic for a relatively short period of time, I assumed that the collection of data would bring new insight into the matter. The theoretical part of my thesis deals with social services and subjects that establish and provide social services. Furthermore, I also discuss the main aims of social services. Next chapter deals with the funding of social services and the factors that help improve the quality of social services. This is followed by the description of nursing and rehabilitation care in residential care facilities. This part focuses closely on the new legal regulation and the types of residential care facilities and also analyses the term competence for the performance of health profession. The practical part of the thesis contains the results of my research work. It describes the methodology (in order to achieve the goal established and to confirm, or reject the hypotheses, I did a questionnaire-based survey and performed the secondary analysis of data). The group studied included all facilities that met the following condition: they had to be residential social services facilities located in the South Bohemian Region. The aim of my work was to find out whether the change in the legal regulation helped improve the funding of nursing and rehabilitation care in residential care facilities. It follows from my research that the possibility of reimbursing for rehabilitation and nursing care from public health insurance means more resources for a social services facility. Furthermore, the obligation to charge a particular health insurer a fee for health care implies more administrative work for the facility. I conclusion, the hypotheses suggested were confirmed and the goal of the work was achieved. My diploma thesis can serve as a full-range source of information for the facilities providing social services. It can also become a useful study material for other students.

CHARLES UNIVERSITY IN PRAGUE Faculty of Science Department of Demography and Geodemography CURRENT STATUS AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES OF THE NUMBER AND STRUCTURE OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE PHYSICIANS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC Synopsis of Ph.D. Thesis Luděk Šídlo 2010 Thesis Director: RNDr. Tomáš Kučera, CSc. 3 Introduction, definition of the problem studied, data resources Demographic aging of physicians in the Czech Republic has recently become a frequently discussed issue, especially in connection with the reduction of availability of needed medical care. Most discussed aspects are primary health care, while this debate is rather on the pages of daily newspapers than among the interested institutions. This illustrates the fact that currently there are no studies or conceptual material for the issues of demographic aging of doctors examined. And this was also the reason which became one of the impulses that led to the elaboration of this theme. Primary health care has had throughout the whole health system a very crucial position, despite the fact that its definition goes back to the end of the seventies of the last century (WHO conference in Alma-Ata in 1978). Neverthelles, the primary health care has still been waiting for an embodiment into the Czech legislation. It is the care that should be the primary point of...

The thesis is focused on issues concerning prenatal, natal and postnatal medical care, which is being provided to Vietnamese women. The core subject of the research is defined as "How do the Vietnamese women reflect upon or respond to health care which is ordinarily provided to them during the pregnancy and labor period as well as the postnatal stage in the Czech republic?" The objective was not just to find out how do the Vietnamese women reflect upon their experience with the care they receive, but also to investigate factors, which could have an effect on their perception and experience. The body of the thesis is divided into a theoretical and empirical part. The theoretical part is devoted to a brief description of the background of the Vietnamese women, including their culture, traditions and the health care system. Different traditions associated with the pregnancy, labor, and postnatal period are described in a separate chapter. It should be noted that findings gathered from expert literature have been enriched with information which comes directly from the author's own research.

Occupational safety and health
Justová, Gabriela ; Kopecký, Martin (referee) ; Kocianová, Renata (advisor)
Occupational safety and health represents a set of measures aimed at reducing, or totally eliminating, the risks endangering lives and health of workers. It is influenced by a character of work and also by working conditions. Lately, emphasis in this field is not only on accident prevention, but also on creating satisfying working conditions. Good working conditions contribute to keeping high productivity and pleasant atmosphere at work, to an increase of quality of life and to social and legal protection of employees. In my thesis I pursue not only work safety and health protection as one sphere of care for workers, its historical development in the Czech Republic and primary legal provisions, but also working conditions and work environment. In connection with these factors I use, as an example, work schedule of flight crews, and a level of cosmic radiation to which the flight attendants are exposed. In a separate chapter I describe contribution of ergonomics to work safety and health protection at work, specifically, and to improvement of human activities generally. In this chapter I describe ergonomic problems connected exclusively with occupation of flight attendant. In another chapter I define concept of "work accident" and duties of an employer when an accident at work happens. To prevent work...
