Introduction of Supervision into Non-State Non-Profit Organizations in the Context of the Social Services Act.
BROŽOVÁ, Pavla
In the theoretical section the diploma thesis is focused on giving definitions of the terms a non-state non-profit organization and supervision. A great extent of attention is then paid to the introduction of supervision into organizations and obstacles that play an important role in this process. The aim of the research section of the thesis was to survey the current state of the introduction of supervision in non-state non-profit organizations providing social services in the South Bohemian Region. The first partial objective was to map the reasons for the introduction of supervision in these organizations. The other partial objective was to identify the obstacles preventing organizations from the introduction of supervision in their workplaces. To conduct the research of the thesis, the qualitative research was chosen, the interviewing method, the technique of semi-conducted interviews The research group consisted of directors or managing directors of non-state non-profit organizations providing social services, and their employees. From the results it is evident that the effectiveness of the Act on Social Services, i.e. also of the Standards of quality of social services, is not the only reason for the introduction of supervision. According to the answers of addressed respondents, there are much more reasons for this measure. Understanding the reasons for the introduction of supervision, however, is different in the management of an organizations and in its employees. The research has also shown that the lack of funds is the major obstacle in implementing supervision into non-state non-profit organizations that provide social services. The author proposes possible solutions to this problem in the discussion. This thesis may be the basis for the introduction of supervision in organizations where it is not used yet. The work can contribute to facilitate the introduction of supervision into organizations providing social services because individual obstacles have been detected and described. Furthermore, this work could be beneficial for students and the staff of helping professions.

The change in scope of burning-out syndrom prevention in the legislation chanages.
MEDLÍNOVÁ, Eva
Paper covers educational training of social services workers who are supposed to have achieved the prescribed qualifications in compliance with the above-mentioned act, or who are supposed to achieve the respective qualifications by means of the so-called qualifications course for workres engaged in social services. Assisting professions are characterized , in particular, by the fact that persons engaged in them are exposed to a more intense contact with people than other professions are. Performance of such professions is associated with great commitment and responsibility. Therefore, workers engaged in social services are exposed to risk of burnout syndrome development to a higher extent than people working in other professions. This syndrome is experienced most frequently as a feeling of mental, physical and emotional exhaustion and not only does it result in deterioration of the quality of services provided, it has very adverse consequences for a social services worker affected by burnout syndrome as well. The work resulted in finding that no improvement of the Burnout Syndrome Manifestation Inventory score was found and that no influence on attitudes to burnout syndrome on the part of most workers engaged in social services after completion of the qualification course was observable. The workers themselves feel that there is no link between the qualification course and the quality of services provided by them.

The burnout syndrome among the generation 50 plus
SHÝBALOVÁ, Ivana
This paper deals with an increasingly discussed phenomenon of today {--} the burnout syndrome. This is a state accompanied by a set of typical, but polymorphic, symptoms that result from the interaction of working environment, workplace conditions, demands on a worker, interpersonal relations and, last but not least, the subjective nature of the worker. Burnout is then reflected not only the quality of work of such a person but, primarily, in their personal life. Helping professions are most affected; in these professions a person is exposed to far greater pressure, level of responsibility and stress situations. The research was aimed at health professionals in hospital Nemocnice České Budějovice a.s. as compared to the personnel of Aurora Spa and Berta's Spa in Třeboň. The research used an already used questionnaire according to the Tošners, which includes the inventory of burnout signs. As expected, the susceptibility to stress is significantly higher among hospital personnel than in spas; many of the interviewed workers have already felt the symptoms of total exhaustion, which is reflected in the relationships outside work. As a possible prevention, a change of attitude, in spending leisure time and, last but not least, expert assistance, has proved beneficial. Threats of burnout pose a real problem for health professionals, therefore, such measures should be introduced at workplaces to help reduce the risk. Also the health professionals themselves should take care of their health and observe basic precautions against the occurrence of burnout. This paper should inform professionals in vulnerable occupations about the risks of burnout occurrence. At the same time, it should help realize that everybody may be threatened by the risk of burnout syndrome due to adverse effects of family and other social factors. Therefore, a strong emphasis should be placed on the observance of precautions, with the inclusion of following a healthy lifestyle.

Supervision in social health care facilities
ŠAŠKOVÁ, Šárka
The term of supervision means a view from above; the supervisor sees the supervisee?s problems from above, so he/she can see also the circumstances which remain hidden to the worker. A supervisor provides support and assistance to workers in helping professions. Supervision, by its nature, may help to prevent the burnout syndrome. In the theoretical part of my work, I tried to explain the concept of supervision, to what targets it can aim, what functions it may have, and what kinds of supervision there are. Equally important is the person of a supervisor who should meet certain criteria in order to carry out supervision. The objective of my thesis was to explore how supervision is carried out in health and social care facilities and how these supervisory meetings are perceived by the staff. Specifically, I focused on two homes for the elderly and the direct service care workers. Three research questions were laid down: 1 To determine whether the supervisor informed the staff about the way supervision will be carried out. 2 To find subjective benefits of supervision for direct care workers. 3 To find out if the staff has heard the term burnout and whether supervision can, according to direct service care workers, assist in the prevention of this syndrome. To obtain the needed information, I used qualitative research and, as an experimental method, the technique of semi-standard interviews. The total number of 10 workers from two homes for the elderly participated in the research. In the interviews, I intended to obtain the basic data on the workers, their awareness of supervision, in which facilities supervision is carried out, what is their relationship to the supervisor, how satisfied they are with supervisory meetings, and what they think is the relationship between job stress, burnout syndrome and supervision. The qualitative research resulted in the following hypotheses: H1: The success of supervision depends on the quality of communication within the facility. H2: Supervision is the prevention of the burnout syndrome. The objective of the thesis was fulfilled. The thesis can be used as a basis for further research, focusing, for example, on the quality of communication between the staff in health and social care facilities and the ways this communication may influence the course of supervision.

Development of volunteering in Týn nad Vltavou
KOCOVÁ, Jaroslava
A volunteer is a person who provides his/her time, his/her energy, knowledge and skills for the benefit of other people or the society in general, with no claim for remuneration. Complexity of preparation of volunteers depends on the activities they prepare for. Training of volunteers is a part of professional approach to volunteering. Supervision, without which high quality volunteering would be impracticable, is also necessary. My Bachelor Work provides the basic insight into volunteering in the Czech Republic in the theoretical part. The following chapters deal with methodology of work with volunteers. A health care centre in Týn nad Vltavou, where the research was performed, is also introduced here. The Bachelor Work was aimed at mapping the situation in volunteering in Týn nad Vltavou. Quantitative research was applied to data collection, the methods of controlled dialogue, questioning, questionnaire technique and uncotrolled dialogue were used. The respondent group consisted of the managers of health care and social facilities in Týn nad Vltavou and volunteering co-ordinators in facilities using volunteers. An uncotrollled dialogue was conducted with a Municipal Authority officer. The results of the Thesis have shown that volunteers are used in the social sphere in Týn nad Vltavou, which confirmed my first hypothesis. The results achieved also refer to the fact that the facilities do not provide basic volunteering service to the volunteers from the volunteering management point of view. The second hypothesis was thus overcome. I would like to contribute to publicity of volunteering not just in Týn nad Vltavou but in general by this Work. I hope that the Thesis will stimulate the use of volunteering also in the facilities where volunteers are not being used yet. The Work is going to be offered to the Municipality of Týn nad Vltavou, which has schown interest in that within its community planning.
