In the empirical part of the diploma thesis there is the goal stated, which is to chart a setting of the individual planning process in the Retirement Home Třebíč. A qualitative research method was applied for a data collection and a sub-analysis method was chosen to create groups (clumps). The major research question for this thesis was established: "Does the individual planning in the Retirement Home Třebíč serve for social integration of the service users?" To answer the main research question, five specific research questions were defined: 1. Are the physiological needs of the users being fulfilled? 2. Is the clients' need for security being fulfilled? 3. Are the social needs of clients being fulfilled? 4. Is the need of clients' autonomy being fulfilled, 5.

The research showed that the respondents are satisfied with individual planning in the Retirement Home Třebíč. In order for the social integration of service users to be complete, not only social but also physiological needs, the need for security and autonomy of residents' needs should be fulfilled. Only if a full range of needs is fulfilled completely, one can speak of a functioning social integration. The research also revealed that all respondents have a key worker and know her name. They identically also answered the question whether they have an individual plan of care formed for them. It reflects wishes of the user if the provided services of the home allow that. To answer the main research question "Does the individual planning in the Senior Home Třebíč serve for social integration of the service users?" my answer is yes. One of the important areas that affect the individual planning and service users' satisfaction is a mutual communication between the residents and staff of the facility. Their proactive approach is of great importance in all areas assessed. In the interviews, clients also repeatedly praised the friendly atmosphere in the home. This thesis should expand awareness of an individual planning in a retirement home among students, home workers, especially key employees, but also the general public.

This work is focused on the topic of "The use of Biography in the individual client planning", IE.on the individual planning of social services and the use of one of the models of care. The aim of this work is to determine how biography reflects the user's individual objectives in fulfilling the social services. Individual planning in social services is based on the Act 108/2006 Coll., on social services. This is the individualising care so that adequate support and assistance, which the client needs. One of the options, how to improve the work with the client, to make better use of the information obtained when the individual planning and provision of social services and improve the quality of care, is working with biographies. Working with biographies of the client is being used in the framework of the Psychobiographical model of care of Professor Erwin Bőhm. A great benefit is mainly for the client itself, which in this model is perceived primarily as a man and his biographical history. I opted for fulfilling the objectives of the qualitative form of research. For the purposes of the research method was chosen for an in-depth interview. Of each species was selected halfstructured the type of interview. The talks were questions divided into two circuits. The first concerned the daily activities and habits of communication partners in their natural environment. At home. The second circuit issues was focused, but he was similarly focused on the present, IE. daily activities and habits in the DSP. Evaluation of the obtained data was carried out using the method of creating clumps. As another method I used content analysis, which is the subject of the documents were used in the House welfare Kralovice, p.o. Provider social services allowed me to see and draw data for analysis of the documentation (biographical notes, plans, individual care plans and quality standards and methodology), promotional materials and brochures and Web pages. Sample to be analysed, with 8 of the communication partners has been selected by the deliberate selection and consisted of users of social services in the House welfare Kralovice, p.o. Carried out interviews and document analysis revealed that the biographical approach in the analysis device is screened throughout the care for the elderly. Workers using the biographical approach, utilizing the client, be prepared for a biography of the clients individual plans and plans of care. The results show that the biographical approach applied for clients as a natural activity, as part of the normal day to day care. But at the same time is part of the other (leisure) activities, to which the workers are preparing in advance and which, following on the biography created and adapted to the needs, capabilities and objectives of the user. Working with biographies of the client helps make individual care plans, reflected the specific needs and wishes of the individual. He gets more space for its autonomy, the need to maintain the ability to lead a life according to their own rules.The client has the option to say, is activated and re-activated, kept to himself, is motivated by activities, implemented into the daily schedule, in the planning of care is employed in accordance with the wishes and needs and according to the biography. On the basis of the data it can be concluded that the use of Biography in the practice, you can change the access and the way in which care provided, as well as to development provided by social services. For more helpful biography can be found in the improvement of the life of the user in the residential institutions of social services. Last but not least working with biographies seems like creative work for the staff. From established facts, it is evident that the information from the biography are very well usable and applicable to individual planning.The objective of the work was filled with and research questions are answered.
