Sleep disturbances in old age.
VÁLOVÁ, Hana
The topics of the thesis are sleep disturbances concerning old age. Sleep is the basic human need, accompanying our life from pre-natal period to death. It is a natural and essential part of our life; it is of cardinal importance for the comfort of each human being. It is a necessary condition for keeping and maintaining physical and psychical health. The absence of sleep leads to serious disturbances. The sleep and its need are individual; it develops in the course of life, but gradually the number of sleep disturbances increases. In opposition to traditional opinions that an old person needs less sleep, it was found out that the total need of sleep does not change much. The observations proved that some old people sleep more than in their young age. In the theoretical part, sleep, its significance, the need of sleep, particular phases and factors influencing it are defined. Further, the disturbances of sleep, their causes, division and treatment are described. It deals with the sleep of the elderly and the role of a nurse supporting and making good quality sleep during the nursing process. Three objectives were stated. The first was to find out sleep habits of the elderly hospitalized in the Hospital Písek, Inc., the second mapped the disturbances of sleep in the clients-the elderly in the Hospital Písek, Inc. The third found out whether the hospitalized clients-the elderly have good conditions for the inducing of sleep. Three hypotheses were stated. The first: ``Clients have sleep habits``. The second supposed that: ``The most frequents sleep disturbances in clients-the elderly is the early waking up. The third hypothesis: ``Clients-the elderly have good conditions for the inducing of sleep``. Quantitative research was chosen to reach the objectives of the thesis and proving the hypotheses. The data collection was carried out by the method of a questionnaire on clients-the elderly in in-patient wards in the Hospital Písek, Inc. After the elaboration of the research part and following assessment it was found out that the first hypothesis-the presence of sleep habits, and the third hypothesis-good conditions for the inducing of sleep, were proved, but the second hypothesis-early waking up, was disproved. Although the results of the research are relatively optimistic, it is surely important to devote further attention to the problems of sleep disturbances in the elderly because sleep is not that natural and obvious for many of them. The person who does not sleep has not enough power, energy and is not able to manage routine daily activities or resist some illnesses. Problems appear in the individual with sleep disturbances and also in the people who are in contact with this individual.

The relationship between the state and religious communities in the USA Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to introduce the relevant aspects of the relationship between the state and religious communities in the United States of America. The focus of the thesis lies in the introduction of the development of interpretation of both religious clauses of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution by the Supreme Court, especially in the 20th century. This thesis aims to show, how both religious clauses, even though they were created to serve the same purpose, are in some cases interpreted in a contradicting way. The thesis also elaborates on religious freedom in the sensitive environment of armed forces, as the soldiers depend totally on services provided to them by the government. In the final part, the thesis introduces certain exceptions from the generally applicable legal provisions for the churches and religious legal entities, as well as recent development from the perspective of admitting religious freedom to business corporations. Keywords: freedom of religion, Constitution of the United States, First Amendment, churches, Supreme Court, USA

Specifics of Perioperative nursing Care of Seniors from the Point of View an Anaesthesia Nurse
VRÁNOVÁ, Magdaléna
The theoretical part of the thesis is focused on nursing care of seniors during perioperative period from the point of view of an anaesthesia nurse. It is divided into a general and a special part. The general part deals with nursing care approach to a senior, with psychosocial aspects of hospitalization, his/her needs, communication barriers and educational specifics. It also covers the issues of operation in old age, psychosomatic changes and their consequences for anaesthesia care. The theory in the specialized part is divided into preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative care in relation to anaesthesia administration.The first goal of the bachelor thesis was to examine the importance of anaesthesia department from senior?s view. The second goal was to determine the importance of anaesthesia department from the view of an anaesthesia nurse and the third goal was to map nursing care of a senior at an operation theatre in relation to anaesthesia.Qualitative research form, the questioning method was applied to information collection. Non-standardized interview with general nurses and seniors was the data collection technique. The research results show that an anaesthesia department is beneficial from seniors? view.It has also been found that nurses consider the anaesthesia department useful particularly for seniors. The benefit for the nurses themselves has still certain imperfections, particularly in sharing information on nursing care with an anaesthesia nurse. The research in nursing care at the operation theatre shows that anaesthesia nurses participate in the continuity of perioperative care of a senior just partially. They are aware the specifics of care about seniors in intraoperation period and differentiate satisfaction of the needs. The thesis might serve as educational material for nurses involved in perioperative care and nurses in specialization education. Documentation was elaborated from the conclusion of the empirical part upon the found drawbacks, particular ideas of the nurses and in compliance with the procedures recommended by the informed public. A brochure Anaesthesiology Guide was elaborated to make cooperation between a nurse and a senior easier.

Škopková, Barbora ; Deverová, Lenka (advisor) ; Šloufová, Romana (referee)
The thesis is concerned with the topic of safety while working with children and youth in non-governmental non-profit organizations (NGOs). In the first part it focuses on the definition of the topic and basic terms connected with this issue, such as "safety", "risk" and "risk management". It tackles history of NGOs working with children and youth in the Czech Republic and also existing relevant laws and legal regulations. The non-existence of an integral legislation for this area of civic activities results in the fact that the representatives of NGOs working with children have to have knowledge and proficiency in a vast variety of laws and regulations. Further on, the thesis offers some insight into the system and methods of risk management in commercial sector, introduces different approaches to risk analyses and attempts to apply some of them in the field of NGOs working with the underaged.
