Cataract is one of the leading causes of blindness in the world and the surgery for its correction is the most common surgery in the developed countries. 80 % of all that people perceive comes to them through their eyes; that´s why deteorating vision may mean limited self-sufficiency or even a complete loss of thereof; patients may then find it difficult to look after themselves. This Bachelor´s thesis consists of both theoretical and practical components.

In the history of all countries you can find mention of a Jewish locality, ghetto, some famous Jew, or a court case with Jews. Jews were persecuted for centuries, and nearly everybody remembers World War II and the Holocaust. Globalization brings migration and multicultural society. To provide clients with efficient nursing care, it is necessary to ensure good professional readiness of nurses for transcultural nursing. The dissertation deals with the peculiarities of nursing care of clients of the Jewish denomination. For the research part techniques of quality research were used {--} semi-standardized survey interview and content data analyse. The research set consisted of 11 clients from Domov sociální péče Hagibor in Prague (care home), and there were 37 files of medical documentation at our disposal. At the very beginning of the research we set 3 aims. Do hospitalized clients of the Jewish denomination require specific nursing care? Are there differences in providing specific nursing care for clients of the Jewish orthodox or conservative type? Are there differences in the care for clients of the Jewish denomination between the terminal stage hospital and the facility for clients of the Jewish denomination? Based on the aims we set the research questions. We fulfilled the aims, and the research questions were answered during the research. Based on the done research we set these hypotheses: Hypothesis 1. When providing nursing care, it is important to know the type of Judaism a client professes. Hypothesis 2: Jews prefer vegetarian meals in medical facilities. Hypothesis 3: Practising Jews refuse hospitalization in a hospital during important feasts unless their life is in danger. Hypothesis 4: There are differences in providig nursing care for Orthodox Jew clients comparing with care for clients of conservative type. Hypothesis 5: There are differences between the care for clients of Jewish denominations in the terminal stage hospital and in a facility for clients of Jewish denomination. The dissertation brings surprising and interesting research results, which were processed into the model of culture friendly-adjusted care of Joyce Newman Giger and Ruth Davidhizar, and a standard nursing care process for a client of Jewish denomination was developed.

Difficulties in nurses work at the emergency department.
PŘEMILOVÁ, Zdeňka
At performing high-quality nursing care for clients in the urgent reception ward, the nurse must have sufficient expert knowledge and experience. Nurses of the urgent reception ward meet clients whose health condition has abruptly changed. The health condition of such clients develops sometimes very dramatically and not only the nurses{\crq} expert knowledge and skills but also the communication and organizational capabilities matter. Communication in nursing process is perceived not only as a means to create interpersonal relations but it constitutes also an important element improving the quality of nursing care. That is why the treatment of the client and the client{\crq}s family members must be adapted so that efficient and effective cooperation is achieved. When providing nursing care to such clients, high psychical and physical demands are put on the nurse and they can even lead to the burnout syndrome. The goal of this Thesis was to process the issue and particularities of work of the nurses working in the urgent reception ward. Before starting the study, we set the following research question: ``What particularities does the work of general nurses in urgent reception wards have?{\crqq} The question was answered in the research part of the Bachelor Thesis, with the help of qualitative form of research investigation by the method of semi-standardized interview. The interview consists of 31 questions. The interviews were anonymous and they were conducted in the urgent reception ward in the Teaching Hospitals of Motol and Plzeň with eight nurses who work there. Case studies were processed on the base of the collected data and subsequently, categorization charts with the most important data obtained by the research were created on the base of the case studies. We confirmed, by our research investigation and by meeting the goal of our research, that the work of nurses in the urgent reception ward is highly demanding both professionally and psychically. The nurse of the urgent reception ward is required to assess and evaluate quickly the client{\crq}s condition and to respond to it adequately within a very short time. It was found out by the research that the nurses working in the urgent reception ward perceive particularly the overcoming of communication barriers in communication with the client and with the client's family and the reduced prestige of nursing profession as negative aspects with impact on their work. The basic particularities of the work of nurses in the urgent reception ward include quick decision-making, demanding character of urgent situations, psychical and physical burden and communication with the client and the client{\crq}s family.
