DVOŘÁČKOVÁ, Dagmar
The dissertation describes the quality of seniors´ life in homes for seniors. It is difficult to create a generally valid definition of the quality of life because of multidimensional and objektive character of this problem. But it is possible to look for factors having influence on the quality of life and for understanding of needs connected with subjective perception of the quality of seniors' life. The definition of theoretical connections in the first part of the work is concentrated on the problem of growing old and old age in connection with looking into the quality of seniors? life. Special attention is payed to the problem of life quality in general with regard to the quality of seniors? life. In the research part there are results and their use in practice. A quantitative research strategy (especially a method of interwieving) was used to reach the research intent. The author of the dissertation has used a combination of three questionnaires created by the World Health Organization which are focused on seniors´ life quality research ? their standardized Czech version: WHOQOL?OLD, WHOQOL?BREF and the questionnaire concernig attitudes to growing old and old age ? AAQ. The main aim of the dissertation was to find out a level of the quality of seniors´ life in homes for seniors, to evaluate the quality of life in various life domains from the point of view of their importance for general satisfaction with the quality of life. The author has researched an influence of sociodemographical indicators on subjective perception of the quality of seniors´ life in homes for seniors. In the last part of the dissertation there are mentioned particular fields which influence the quality of seniors´ life and there are described factors participating in the quality of life. Paying attention to the quality of seniors´ life in homes for seniors not only by seniors themselves but also by managers of these facilities ? it is a practical benefit of author´s dissertation. Several homes for seniors have showed interest in cooperation to create manuals for key management.These manuals will become a methodical material for creation of individual plans for seniors in homes for seniors. Knowledge of factors impressing the quality of seniors´ life can help to define needs of seniors in homes for seniors and to make easier planning aims of provided services. Other practical benefit of this work is publishing a special scientific publication called Quality of seniors´ life in homes for seniors which will be published by Grada Publishing in August 2012. The theoretical solutions and research results of this dissertation will be presented here. The reason of choosing the theme ?Quality of seniors´ life in homes for seniors? was to show an importace of perception of a man based on bio-psycho-social and spiritual level including his subjective outlook on satisfaction of his personal needs. This philosophy is tightly connected with the quality of provided services in long-stay facilities. The quality of provided services can be judged according to objective indicators including subjective perception of particular users.
