Methodology of the Cooperation between the Director and Actor and Contermporary Theater Practice
Glogrová, Kateřina ; BURIAN, Jan (advisor) ; HRBEK, Daniel (referee)
The thesis deals with the cooperation between the director and actor during individual phases of the staging process as they appear in everyday theatre life. The indiviual phases of the staging process are supplemented by the author's own experience with managing the actors, which she gained especially in the course of her studies at the Drama Faculty of AMU. The second part of the thesis investigates the issues of inner truthfulness and the possibilities of its achievement within the production of a play. As a part of collecting the material for the thesis, the author conducted a research, which included interviews with three professional directors - Hana Burešová, Ladislav Smoček and Štěpán Pácl, whose methods of work are described. In the final part of the thesis the author states that it is difficult to draw general conclusions about the cooperation between the director and actor because it is always of subjective nature. The issue of inner truthfulness is similarly difficult to generalise. Due to the multiplicity of options, however, neither of them loses attractiveness for further research.

Home care versus institutional care for seniors from the perspective of nursing
SLÁDEČKOVÁ, Petra
For many years, great attention has been devoted to the care of the elderly due to global aging of population. Almost all people want to spend their old age at home in their environment. This idea is supported by many experts who deal with the issue of old age and point to the advantages that it entails for both the senior and for the society. Therefore, it is paradox that many old people are placed in various health and social care facilities despite a wide range of various external services that enable seniors to stay in their home environment. That is why this master thesis aims to compare the nursing care provided to elderly people in their home environment with the care provided in institutions, both from perspective of a nurse who provides the care and from perspective of the elderly person or members of their family. The thesis is divided into two main parts. The theoretical part focuses on explaining the old age and the changes that come along with the old age. It also points out how old age is perceived in contemporary society. Further, it deals with different types of senior care that is most frequently divided into family, health and social care. The practical part is focused directly on individual families of seniors who live at home supported with home care, and to families who have a member in the department for the chronically ill (DCI). In the practical part I also focused on nursing staff, particularly nurses who come into contact with the seniors every day. A qualitative research method was used for the research survey. The technique of in-depth interview was used for data collection. The first part of the research group consisted of nurses working in DCI and nurses working in home care. The second part of the group consisted of seniors who reside in DCI and their families and the elderly who use home care services and their families. Interviews with the nurses, seniors and their families are divided into individual categories: awareness, reason for placement to DCI, satisfaction with the care provided, the advantages and disadvantages of home care/DCI, differences in care in DCI and at home, in foods and drinks, positioning and incidence of pressure sores, hygiene, administering medicines, re-bandaging, in bowel habits, behavior of staff/family, facilities for a senior. The investigation shows that families consider hospital care and home care to be very good, but it can be seen that home care nurses enjoy greater trust of the family and have much closer relationship than those in a hospital. Both groups of nurses think that the care they provide is of high quality and professional, but point to the lack of funding that a hospital and a home care agency have. A very surprising fact emerged that families that have an elderly person in institutional care are eager for the placement since they believe that they would not be able to care of them properly themselves. The investigation cannot clearly assess which type of care is best because both methods have their positives and downsides for every party involved and there are different variables, such as the health condition of the elderly, their family or social background. Quantitative research over a longer period of time would be required for thorough mapping of the entire situation which could monitor the provided care in the long run and also take into account the above variables that may change over time.
