Comparison of the availability of resources on multicultural nursing in the Czech Republic and Great Britain.
SHIVALANKA, Anna
Currently multicultural nursing is an increasingly discussed topic. New resources are being created that inform nurses how to care about patients from different cultural groups. The main objective of the study was to explore and compare the availability of these resources to nurses in the Czech Republic and Great Britain and further clarification on what specific resources there are for nurses working with patients from minorities. We asked three research questions. Firsly, how often did staff in Czech and British hospitals get into a situation where they cared for people from some of the minorities and needed to seek information about such care? Secondly, what is the availability of resources on multicultural nursing? Thirdly, what is the clarity and intelligibility of resources on caring for members of minorities that are available to healthcare professionals? Qualitative research was conducted which has been established for the research questions. The actual survey was carried out by non-standardized interviews with a research collection. The conditions for selecting respondents were: a sample of colleagues who personally knows the author and works in a hospital, have at least 5 years? experience and were willing to devote their time to the interviews. Interviews formed a base for the research categorization. The results are based on the interviews and were processed using framework analysis (categorization groups). From these results it is evident that nurses in Great Britain face patients from minority groups more often than their Czech colleagues. Nurses from both countries appreciate that there are specifics of care for each minority group. Language barrier is resolved by nurses in both countries in a similar way. In addition the British nurses also stated that they tried to learn basic words in the language they encountered most often. In the field of multicultural education the British nurses are in advance of the Czech ones. Regarding their own initiative when searching for resources on multicultural nursing, most Czech nurses do not feel the need to search for such information. All the interviewed nurses from Great Britain actively and voluntarily seek such information. There is also a considerable difference in access to information in the workplace. Most Czech nurses stated that they do not have such resources in the workplace, while all British nurses know where to find this information at their workplace. All interviewed nurses - both from the Czech Republic and Great Britain ? would welcome a unified source that would provide them with information regarding the specifics of nursing care for minority groups. Most Czech and British nurses are also unaware of the specific legal provisions that would legislate the care of foreigners. It is imperative that nurses are aware of their own responsibility for the education and awareness of multicultural nursing. They must not be indifferent to the feelings of their patients from different cultures and must actively educate and inform themselves about multicultural care and contribute to its development. Nurses must also behave as prescribed by the Nursing and Midwifery Council and International Council of Nurses ? most importantly with unconditional respect for their patients. Responsibility for their knowledge and skills is up to the nurses themselves as well as their employers. The purpose of this thesis is to highlight the need for awareness and education of nurses in the field of multicultural nursing, both in basic training, and in subsequent courses and in the form of self-education. This paper should also highlight the need for uniform, well arranged and user-friendly resource that will be available to all nurses. Until nurses are well educated in the field of multicultural care, nursing care can not be provided in a holistic manner which is the goal of modern nursing.

Prokůpek, Marek ; Riedlbauch, Václav (advisor) ; Machek, Ondřej (referee) ; Wagner, Jaroslav (referee)
The issue of the economics of cultural institutions, their economic impact, and measurement of their performance has been paid systematic attention basically only in the past few years. PhD thesis analyses the methods of performance measurement in public art museums and creates economic models. Aim of my thesis is also to create a model for museum managers to measure the performance. Nowadays it is almost necessary to integrate performance measurement system in organization´s strategy decision making. The museum managers feel the pressure to prove that their organization is performing well by various stakeholders and we perceive the idea that multidimensional performance measures could fill the informational gap concerning performance, quality, and the artistic value of cultural programs. The mixed research method was employed in this research. Qualitative data was obtained from the questionnaire and interviews. Quantitative data was obtained from the questionnaire, annual reports and reports of The National Information and Consulting Centre for Culture (NIPOS). The aim of this study is to propose a comprehensive multidimensional model to assess art museum activities. This model takes into account the scope and character of museum´s mission. This model consists of implementation of Data Envelopment Analysis into Balanced Scorecard.

Management of claims
ŘÍHOVÁ, Markéta
Control of outstanding is one of the most important activities of financial flow managing. A company should have a lot of working funds to its running and development. However, if company{\crq}s debtors do not pay their accounts, the company will be threatened by problems with its liquidity. For this reason it is necessary not to underestimate outstanding control as is in many companies occurred. First it is necessary to screen companies´ standing and put the accent on terms of contract so that debts will be paid in a term of maturity. However, if disputable or desperate debts will appear (even thought precautions are done), it is required to use all of the possible security instruments, with respect to their effectiveness. In my diploma thesis I would like to evaluate control of outstanding and then I make a proposal of debts control system in the ABCmont company. Integral part of my case study will be a rating of the particular customers´ segment, methods of the emendatory items and possibilities of accountant and taxation solutions.
