VOLDŘICHOVÁ, Petra
Communication is generally defined as a transfer of information via various signals and means: orally, in writing, by facial expressions, gestures and other non-verbal behaviour, in particular between two or among several people. It is also often stated to involve the manners or the means facilitating connection (understanding). Doctors and nurses generally admit communication difficulties in certain specific demanding situations but some of them believe that they are good mediators, i.e. good communicators, due to their upbringing, abilities and education. By contrast, senior patients often find the communication skills of medical workers rather unsatisfactory and show dissatisfaction with the course of intercommunication. The objective of the research part of the bachelor thesis was to ascertain the manner how doctors and nurses communicate with senior patients in the neurosurgical ward. Another objective was to ascertain which manners of communication are suitable for senior patients hospitalized in the neurosurgical ward. It followed from the research that the seniors hospitalized in the neurosurgical ward prefer verbal communication {--} this form of communication is the most convenient for them. The medical staff also stated that they mostly used verbal communication {--} in some cases supplemented with non-verbal communication, in particular with gestures and the tone of the voice. This thesis could be used as a feedback in the area of communication between the medical workers and the senior patients hospitalized in the neurosurgical ward of Nemocnice České Budějovice, a.s.

Caring for Senior Citizens with Dementia
PRŮCHA, Vlastimil
The thesis deals with the manifestation and results of aging and old age from the point of view of the elderly and their experience of this stage of life and also from the viewpoint of the family and society around them. Further attention is drawn to the importance of the connection of health and social care for citizens with health problems, and the significance of social work in caring for senior citizens is emphasised. Other parts deal with the notion of dementia, with particular focus on Alzheimer{\crq}s disease. Basic problems are outlined which are connected with a citizen dealing with dementia and information is given which can help the family and all those who are involved in helping the patient. In the conclusion I evaluate the significance of permanent care and I consider the needs of non-institutional care and emphasise the importance of a caring family, humanity and understanding, which are important for the quality of life of those with dementia. This is the aim of my thesis.
