Reform of Canadian asylum system
Staňková, Lenka ; Fiřtová, Magdalena (advisor) ; Kozák, Kryštof (referee)
The Master thesis The Reform of Canada's Asylum System deals with the refugee issue in Canada. Canada's asylum system has been the subject of controversy almost since its inception in the 1970s. The asylum system has been crippled by a cumbersome inland refugee determination process which resulted in a huge backlog of unresolved asylum claims. Even though various governments have tried to reform the dysfunctional system, newly implemented measures only have led to even bigger backlog and longer delays, which encourage people who are not in need of protection to make an asylum claim knowing they will be able to skip the regular but lengthy immigration process and have immediate access to a range of generous social benefits. The thesis analyzes the problems of the existing asylum system which are seen in a general access to the refugee determination process, in its expensiveness, in the inefficiency of the immigration authorities, and in long delays allowing the asylum seekers to live and work in Canada for many years. Analyzing the expected outcomes of the new reform, the thesis assesses whether the new proposal of Canadian refugee and asylum policy will be finally successful in resolving the problems that are crippling Canada's asylum system or whether it will be rather classified just as another...

Feilhauer, Petr ; Sirka, Martin (referee) ; Zezulka, František (advisor)
This master’s thesis contains a basic description of the function and wiring of Electronic tachograph RE1xx from company UniControls - Tramex. The main objectives of this thesis are design and implementation of a functional module, combining the four frequency inputs, two analog inputs and eight digital inputs. The proposed module must be fully compatible with current system of Electronic tachograph and must be according by the basic technical-law standards, which refer of this branch for application this device. Based on the analysis of methods of processing various signals are proposed several concepts of the input module. Individual concepts are described with advantages and disadvantages. On the design concept of this module, followed by a description of the speed sensor, is placed on the redress of vehicle. Design of circumferential involvement of the chosen conception is detailed described and divided into several parts (controlling part, frequency inputs, analog inputs, binary inputs). In this module is accent on increased reliability and interoperability, which is achieved by using for example: power monitor, external watchdog, etc. For realization prototype is a part of thesis design of the PCB. Thesis includes theoretical calculations, which is needed for the design of software. On a functional input module is developed and debugged operating firmware, which is based on single-fiber design of the program. To measure the actual speed are debugged two algorithms - method of periodic sampling and the method of external interrupt. The following is a description of the measurement and processing of analog and digital signals (used algorithms suppress oscilation of input signals). The result of this master’s thesis is functional Module of frequency, analog and digital inputs, which measures vehicle speed, distance covered, direction of movement, two analog signals and evaluates states of the binary signal. Preprocessed data are sent to a Module of central processor through serial communications RS485.

Extended binary Golay code
Uchytilová, Vendula ; Drápal, Aleš (advisor) ; Hora, Jan (referee)
This work deals with three different constructions of the extended binary Golay code G24. The first construction is based on a projective plane of order four. In terms of it Steiner system (5, 8, 24) is built. Linear span of its blocks forms a linear binary [24, 12, 8] code C. Every binary [24, 12, 8] code is isomorphic to C which is known as extended binary Golay code G24. The second construction uses so-called Miracle Octad Generator (MOG). All MOG-words of weight eight form Steiner system (5, 8, 24). The third construction uses impartial combinatorial game Mogul. In terms of its P-positions one can create a linear binary [24, 12, 8] code. The fact that is is also a lexikographic code is useful for parametres estimate. 1

Tuberculosis as a nursing problem
KUBEKOVÁ, Martina
Tuberculosis (TBC) is an infectious disease affecting mostly the respiration system. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), every year approximately eight million new cases of tuberculosis are reported and around two million people die of this disease. The Czech Republic ranks among the countries with the lowest annual incidence of tuberculosis. Patients suffering from tuberculosis are hospitalized in tuberculosis and respiration diseases (TRN) wards where they have to follow a certain medical regimen. They are hospitalized in isolated rooms, have to observe increased hand hygiene, use disposable tissues for coughing, spit the sputum into sputum containers, cover their month while coughing and use their own eating utensils and drinking glasses. In terms of comprehensive nursing care of tuberculosis patients, the problematic issue is observance of the barrier nursing care. While providing nursing care to a tuberculosis patient it is important that the nurse uses disposable protective aids and observes hand hygiene and disinfection principles. For these reasons the theoretical part includes the barrier nursing care, hygienic-epidemiologic techniques and principles of the medical regimen of tuberculosis patients. The research was qualitative and used interviews and monitoring. The research set were the patients and nurses in the TRN ward in Nemocnice Jihlava a.s. The objective of the thesis was to ascertain whether the TBC patients observe the medical regimen and whether the nurses observe the principles of the barrier nursing care of TBC patients. Two research issues were set in respect of the objectives. 1. Do the tuberculosis patients observe the medical regimen? 2. Do the nurses observe the principles of the barrier nursing care of tuberculosis patients? The research revealed that the monitored patients observed the medical regimen. The monitored nurses observed the barrier nursing care and hygienic-epidemiologic measures. Based on these results it can be stated that the nurses have both theoretical and practical knowledge in the area of the barrier nursing care and use the knowledge while providing nursing care to tuberculosis patients. Three hypotheses followed from the research. H1: The patients in the TRN ward observe the medical regimen. H2: The nurses know the principles of the barrier nursing technique. H3: The nurses observe the principles of the barrier nursing care. The results of the research will be provided to the nurse manager of the hospital of Jihlava and to the head nurse of the tuberculosis and respiration diseases ward of Nemocnice Jihlava a.s. as a source of information for continuous improvement of quality of the nursing care of tuberculosis patients in the tuberculosis and respiration diseases ward.

Nursing classification systems NANDA International, NIC, NOC and their use in pain management in children after orthopedic surgery
DYMÁKOVÁ, Kateřina
The aim of Graduation thesis is utilisation of classifying systems NANDA International, NIC and NOC by solving of nursing issue Acute pain at children after orthopaedical major surgeries. Part of successful and well adjusted treating of pain is its careful recording into medical documentation. For the goal of creating of the documentation there could be used international classification systems NANDA Intermational, NIC and NOC, with their aid it is possible to complete comprehensive aid, which describes each step of the treatment praxis. The first goal of the thesis was to map awareness of the nursing staff of systems mentioned. The second goal was creating of an aid using separate parts of system NANDA International, NIC and NOC aimed to diagnostics, solving and evaluation of the Problem of Acute pain at children after major surgeries. The last goal was verifying of beneficial effect of the new created documentation in praxis. The first research specimen was build by 58 nurses from four hospitals in Czech Republic working in children's departments. It was approached 8 hospitals altogether, nursing staff of four of them participated in the survey. The second research specimen was build by nurses from Children department in Hospital Pribram. The third part of research was built by 5 children admitted to hospital. The criterion for their attendance was their major surgery operation and their diagnosis Acute Pain. We used the half structured questionnaire for collecting of figures, models method and ideas of content analysis of documents and quasi experiment. Particular steps of research were realised as following: In the period of time February 2013 till March 2013, 60 questionnaires were distributed. Return was 100%. Cooperation with nurses from hospital Pribram lasted from 1. 3. 2013 until 29. 3. 2013. The medical documentation was created during this period of time, the method was tested and evaluated from nurses point of view. We found out, the nurses are familiar with system NANDA International but not aware of other two systems mentioned above. It was researched on statistical basis dependency between awareness of the specific classifications and the highest education grade and age of the nurses was considered, as well. During our stay in Hospital in Pribram, the practical aid was created aimed to evaluation and solving of the issue Acute Pain after orthopedical surgeries. This aid was tested in the same department then. A record was taken into amended forms by children after major surgeries. Concerning forms aimed for nursing praxis there were recorded not only intensity, characters and localisation of the pain, there were recorded which significant marks and connected factors from NANDA International Taxonomie II were possible to observe by particular children. There were recorder information which activities were used for children into forms containing interventions and activities drawn from from classification NIC. Last but not least, the pain was considered on the daily basis using classification NOC. As we found out from discussions with nurses cooperating during the research, more than a half of them perceive the use of the above mentioned aid very contributive. One idea appeared, the aid is needed in the Czech nursing practice. From this point of view, it would be beneficial to pay attention to this issue in the future.

Valterová, Jana ; Křečková Kroupová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Bartošek, Josef (referee)
This diploma thesis is focused on Czech-Scottish cultural standards at work environment. The main aim is to define Scottish cultural standards at work environment from the Czech point of view and to compare them with the theory. The thesis begins with the definition of culture, cultural dimensions introduced by G. Hofstede, F. Trompenaars and E. T. Hall and cultural standards by A. Thomas. It continues to the description of Scotland with its geography, history, language, economic situation and various systems in the society, such as the legal system, educational system, health care system, a role of the family and religion. Further, Scottish national identity, key values and traditions are identified and there are added some information about work in Scotland. The thesis then leads us onwards to the determination of eight cultural standards at work environment and six cultural standards connected with the daily life in Scotland based on the qualitative research. The standards concerning work environment are further compared with the theory. At the end of the thesis, there are provided some recommendations for Czechs who are going to work with Scots.

Homelessness - solving of the phenomenon in the context of residential services
ŠPERLOVÁ, Markéta
Homeless people create a specific subculture in our society. It's a matter of a negative phenomenon of which the society has a poor opinion coming often from a lack of information. There is a lot of ways helping to find solutions to this problem, in these days. First of all, in this bachelor's work, the terms of the subject are clarified, as well as the history and the general characteristics of homelessness. This work contains the current legislation and some chosen statistics indicators. It proposes possible solutions of homelessness in the Czech Republic, especially in the capital. Projects, conceptions and plans are mentioned as well as the systems of helping focusing on integration, independence and residential services. A list of some active organizations involved in helping this problem is included. The conclusion of the theoretical part is dedicated to the Salvation Army. After the theory comes the practical part. The branch of the Salvation Army named Centre of Social Services of Bohuslav Bures is presented here. It is the place, where my practical quest was done. The purpose of this quest was to figure out if the social and residential services of the Centre of Social Services of Bohuslav Bures are sufficient to allow their adepts to integrate completely to the ordinary society. The information is provided from the users of the asylum themselves. The investigation covers up the services of the centre that should respond to the real needs of its users. The chosen situations of particular people from my quest were considered from an angle of a larger scale of time. Questions were based on the indicators of the past, the present and the future. In order to get information I chose the method of qualified approach and the study of particular cases. A partly structured dialogue was the main technique in which seven clients engaged. We first defined the problem to deal with. It was the effectiveness and the influence of provided services in the asylum. Then we specified the main question and other partial questions of the inquiry. Obtained data was noted, analysed and interpreted in order to provide an answer to the questions of the inquiry. The practical part carries a record of a dialogue with one of the social workers of the Salvation Army Centre of Social Services of Bohuslav Bures provided for my quest as a part of it. The quest showed the asylum thanks to the extent of its services enables homeless people to integrate back into our society. Some other recommendations were stated. The goal of the quest was achieved.
