Brabencová, Eva ; Kodymová, Pavla (advisor) ; Davidová, Ivana (referee)
Diploma thesis Possibilities of independence and reintegration of clients using long term transitional housing for homeless people - focusing on Prague deals with problem of barriers in a reintegration process of homeless people. It is a primarily unavailability of follow up affordable housing and non-existent system of social housing in the Czech republic. The consequence is long term remain in the transitional housing or in a hostel without possibility of full return to the society. This problem is not resolved neither providing social benefits for housing. Because often the people in need don't get them or the benefits are abused by the owners of the hostels. This metod of solving is very overpriced and unpromising for the future.

Health Perception of Homeless People.
CARBOVÁ, Terezie
The thesis focuses on homeless people's perception of their health. First, it should be pointed out that this issue has not been comprehensively analysed and described by experts. The theoretical part describes homeless people, their categories and characteristics and the problematic area of health care. Furthermore, the theoretical part also deals with different approaches to the concept of health and its determinants. Finally, it concentrates on the mental process of perception. The research was conducted using a qualitative research method, a survey method and a semi-structured interview. The research group consisted of five respondents (four men and a one woman) who are clients of at least one service for homeless people. The research group was selected by means of random sampling. The questions in the interview centred on a timeline; that is, how people had perceived their health before they became homeless, how they perceive it now and how they expect their health to evolve in the future. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was chosen as a research method. A narrative structure of themes was created and also the results were evaluated using this method. The most frequent themes that emerged during the analysis were the following three: rationality of thinking, emotional sentiment and moral thinking (or more generally, spiritual contemplation). The research has also often shown a struggle for human dignity. This thesis could help to raise awareness not only among social workers, but also among the general public. The results of the thesis can serve as an inspiration for application and development of social work in this field.

Social Work with Homeless People in the Context of the Ethics of Care
KEŇOVÁ, Hedvika
The diploma thesis is focused on the problem of homelessness, social work with homeless people, the ethics of care and its usefulness within social work with the homeless. Every particular topic has been described and evaluated from the point of view of various authors, both Czech and foreign. The main part of this diploma thesis is the interconnection of the ethics of care in social work, specifically in social work with the homeless. The ethics of care is then applied into social services which are provided to the homeless. The ethics of care has been also talked about in the context of the organisations which provide help for the homeless. The substantial part of the diploma thesis is a question whether or not the ethics of care in social work with the homeless can be used under the conditions we have in the Czech Republic. Not only the state of social work in the Czech Republic, but also Czech legislation and work of the organisations providing help for the homeless are very important matters to think of. Evaluation is based on the use of all the resources and the aim is to interconnect all the parts of this diploma thesis.
