Specific nursing care for a frail senior
FRISCHOVÁ, Karolína
The aim of the bachelor thesis entitled "Specific nursing care for a frail senior" was to map the specifics of nursing care for a fragile senior and to find out the use of evaluation tests in practice, or to find the most adequate tool for the evaluation of seniors. In the theoretical part of the bachelor thesis, I focused on the definition of the concept of old age and aging and the problems associated with it, as well as on a detailed description of geriatric frailty from a theoretical point of view and, last but not least, on the assessment scales for a comprehensive assessment of seniors. The chapter is also devoted to proper nutrition in old age, which should not be forgotten in health care and personal life and is often key in the prevention and treatment of diseases. Part of the bachelor thesis is also devoted to risk areas that threaten seniors with geriatric frailty. The last subchapter of the theoretical part is devoted to the importance of motivation in the process of returning the senior's self-sufficiency and not giving up the goal and hope when being bedridden. The practical part of the bachelor thesis was filled with quantitative research investigation, using evaluation tests: SPPB to assess the physical fitness of seniors (see Appendix 1), questionnaire SARC-F (see Annex 2) to determine the degree of sarcopenia and Criteria for the evaluation of fragility according to Friedová (see Appendix 3). Part of the research was carried out in the Home for the Elderly in Bechyně, the other part consisted of members of my family and neighbors over 70 years of age. Testing was anonymous and completely voluntary. The research was processed by means of tables and graphs and statistical processing of hypotheses was done by Chi-square test and correlation method. The aim was early identification of frail patient in health care settings and finding a suitable measurement tool for clinical practice.

Janovská, Tereza ; Vojtová, Lea (referee) ; Dýr, Petr (advisor)
The task of the diploma thesis is to prepare an architectural-urban study of a large multifunctional complex of the AGRISPOL company in the village of Mořice. The proposal is to have a wide scope, design of biogas plant, storage facilities, silos, internal roads, accommodation and recreation. The agricultural centre owns four agricultural sites, Mořice, Vitčice, Vrchoslavice and Pavlovice near Kojetín. The topic of the pre-diploma thesis was the agricultural centre Vitčice. The main idea of the thesis was to design efficient communications, layout and arrangement of the biogas plant, revitalization of garages and workshops, design of storage halls for the purposes of the cooperative or for rent. The eastern part of the plot is designated for short-term housing and senior housing in the proposed nursing home, supplemented by services such as manicure, pedicure, hairdresser. These two units are divided into almost two identical buildings that resemble a hockey stick in shape. The combination of these two shapes has created an inner courtyard which serves as a garden/park for the adjacent accommodation units. The park will be freely accessible to the public. The capacity of the nursing home is 16 accommodation units. The units include a hallway, private bathroom and a living room with kitchenette. The capacity of the adjacent apartment building with an adjacent multifunctional part is 8 flats of 1+kk size and 9 flats of 2+kk size. The apartments are designed as starter housing for young couples or for accommodation of AGRISPOL employees. It is a form of short-term housing.

Title: Association between alcohol use and semantic verbal fluency in older adults over 65 years of age Objectives: To determine the association between alcohol consumption and one of the memory components - semantic verbal fluency in older adults over 65 years. Methods: This diploma thesis was carried out as the secondary analysis of data from an international cross-sectional study, which was a part of the Survey of Health Aging and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) project. For the purposes of this thesis, the participants were divided into six categories according to their education levels, and sex.

More frequent alcohol consumption was associated with lower performance in the semantic verbal fluency test in the several categories according to education (p<0.001). This relationship was primarily among participants with less education, the unstandardized regression coefficient B = -1.416 (p = 0.045) was estimated in women who consumed alcohol five or six days a week and...

Vyhodnocení úrovně plnění nutričních požadavků seniorů ve vybraném domově pro seniory
REINDL, Karolína
In the field of nutrition, there has been a major shift in recent years in understanding the impact of food intake and overall diet on the human body. For older people the importance in this area is reflected in the need for higher demands on care. Retirement homes and their dining facilities usually cover a wide range of their clients' needs, including food. One indicator of quality of life is the area of nutrition; therefore, great emphasis should be placed on the quality and composition of the food intake. The aim of the diploma thesis was to find out the current state of catering for seniors in the retirement home in terms of nutritional quality of food served with respect to gender and age of clients. It should be assessed whether the composition of the diets corresponds to the principles of rational nutrition of seniors and whether there are seasonal differences between individual diets during the year. Weekly diet was evaluated in every season of the year. To assess whether the weekly diets meet the nutrient requirements for the category of senior men and women, the DACH standard issued in 2019 was chosen. Each of the nutrients was evaluated in terms of nutritional and energy value. Individual nutrient values of macronutrients and micronutrients were searched in several databases. When assessing whether the weekly menus meet the standards for the need for nutrients for the senior category, it was found that, with exceptions, macronutrients were supplied in larger than recommended amounts, especially for proteins and fats, which was also reflected in a higher energy intake. On the other hand, part of the micronutrients (vitamin D, C and calcium) were below the recommended norm. The largest deviation from the norm was achieved for vitamin D (-90.18%) in September, but this does not indicate the total intake of vitamin D, but only its dietary intake. On average, a person receives 4 to 5 g of D from the diet (i.e. 20-25% of the RDA) and the rest is synthesized by the body from endogenous sources, so the result was very good. The other micronutrients (vit. A and Fe) were met with slight deviations from the norm. The seasonality of food was reflected by the selection of seasonal vegetables and by an appropriate selection of soups. In conclusion, it can be stated that the nutrition of seniors in the retirement home with all-day care is guided by the staff of the catering facility in an effort to comply with nutritional standards, which is only partially successful. It has been proposed to create diets with foods that are less energy intensive and contain less fat. It would be appropriate to include more fruits and vegetables in the diet, to cover vitamin C deficiency, for example in the form of vegetable salads or enriching the breakfast with fresh fruit together with a dairy product. For the regular supply of vitamin D (diet) and calcium, fish and egg dishes have proven to be beneficial, it would be beneficial to include products fortified with vitamin D, such as milk and milk products, breakfast cereals, cocoa, pastries, or the administration of food supplements (fish oil in the form of Omega 3 capsules, etc.). The organism of the elderly has a greater need for vitamin D, therefore its intake in food is very important.
