NOVOTNÁ, Šárka
This Bachelor´s work deals with a social care allowance in degree II granted to handicapped people over 18 years of age, dependent on another person´s asssistance, who live in the home environment. The work is trying to find out how much they use the allowance to buy field social services and whether they use it for arranging for assistance for themselves. I am engaged in the problem as a field social worker of assistance allowance. The theoretical part presents the Act No. 108/2006 Coll.on Social Services, describes the system of social services and social assistance before this Act came into force. Subsequently it addresses care allowances and current social care services, the position of a social service worker whose professionalism is guaranteed by the Social Services Act, deals with ethics and the current concept of social work. The practical part is based on the findings of qualitative research technique, questionning the clients while controlling the use of an allowance. The findings confirm the fact that the care allowance is misused and hardly ever used to buy field social services. The work may form a background for comments on the Law No. 108/2006 Coll. On Social Services and thus help solve the problem of misusing the allowance. There are two views of the situation to be considered. Either the attitude of the Ministery of Labour and Social Affairs which prefers better monitoring of the allowances and the other view prefers insisting in better individual social work with every single beneficiary

Psychosocial working load of nurses and social workers. Quantitative survey.
STEHLÍKOVÁ, Kateřina
I deal with problems of psychosocial working load of nurses and social workers in this final bachelor thesis. As usual the bachelor thesis is divided into a theoretical part and practical one. In the theoretical part I focused on a loading characteristic, on its types, on individual load situations. Furthermore some notions are described here such as working load, psychosocial load. I did not forget to apply herself to a nursing concept, nurse profession and as well to a social work characteristic and social worker profession. In the practical part I focused on a rate deduction of psychosocial working load and on identification of causes of psychosocial working load of nurses and social workers. A questioning method by the help of a non-standardized questionnaire was used to detect set targets. I have made up the questionnaire on the basis of my own experience and personal assumptions. The group of questioned people was formed by nurses and social workers from South Moravian Region, district Znojmo. The results have been arranged into a diagram. The research has proved that in both professions it is possible to identify the rate and causes of psychosocial working load. By choosing of this theme I wanted to pint out to psychosocial working load which nurses and social workers are daily accompanied by. This work has brought me a lot of information and thinking about these problems. I hope that it will also benefit nurses, social workers and as well their supervisors. Thinking about these problems could lead many people to a solution or even elimination of some issues connected with this given theme.

Identification of handicaps of mentally disabled person in the age of adolescence and early adulthood carried out by a social worker
ŠESTÁK, Jan
If a social service shall reach its goal as a targeted and individual one it must respond to real needs of the mentally disabled individual. Social workers are active participants in integration processes of mentally disabled people. What role does the social worker play in the integration process? In what items and how can he assist the mentally disabled person in accomplishing his/her social role in corresponding and worthy way? What tools and skills does he need for it? The dissertation thesis tries to work with those questions and to discuss them in more details. An attempt is made to outline theoretic and practical grounds and possibilities for activities of the social worker in the process of integration of mentally disabled people into the common society. Motivated by an effort to understand activities of the social worker comprehensibly and unambiguously, a concept of three-level periodic operation was defined as ``Identification {--} Support {--} Opportunity``. The goal of the research is to form an evaluation scale (of the ``Identification`` tool) that could help the social worker in identification of substantial handicaps but also in recognition of advantages of mentally disabled individuals, and to plan focusing of provided social services on individual and effective incorporation of a mentally disabled person into his/her common life or to remove obstacles hindering from his/her incorporation. Usability and functionality of the evaluation tool entitled ``3P {--} Profil Potřebné Podpory`` (the Support Intensity Profile) were tested in a real environment. 20 users of social services and employees of protected workshops were included in a research set of studied persons with mild and moderate mental retardation in the age from 19 to 46 years.
