HLOUCALOVÁ, Irena
These Bachelor Degree Theses describe facts connected with foster care and guardianship issues with emphasize on legal obligation to ensure a contact of the child with his original biological family. The theoretical part of my work starts with historical milestones of a foster family care in the world and in our country. Then I deal with the present state and I describe institutions that are engaged in the foster family care. The practical part of these theses is elaborated by the qualitative method using semistructured interviews with foster parents and guardians. I made a list of most frequently mentioned basic needs of foster parents and guardians as well as the children in the foster care and opinions of foster parents and guardians regarding the mentioned topic. These theses can be used as a material for work of intervention centres of the foster family care as well as for other specialists dealing with this area of the foster family care, eventually as an inspiration and motivating material for applicants for the foster family care.
