Resume The thesis deals with monitoring image of handicapped person in present Czech literature for children and youth. It involves creation from the 90th of the 20th century. Its aim is focusing on selected representative works of various authors and identifies the way of inclusion the physical, mental and social handicap. Selected works are different, they vary in genre, approach to disability and also in age of target readers. The reasons for this diversity is capture the range of options to solve this task as clearly as possible. The primary aspect is in particular literary and aesthetic, but the thesis also affects the emerging elements of educational, moral and ethical. It is engaged in construction of the main character and other characters, while the deciding recognition of differences is when the main character has handicap and on the other hand when handicap is viewed from a distance. In this diversity is also important the narrative perspective, that with their variations can lead to emphasize the heart of disabled person and his own emotionality, or more likely monitor the interaction of handicapped individual with world and other people.

Study of emergency medical service preparedness for large number of injuries and casualties - bus accident
PRUDEL, Ondřej
This diploma thesis deals with problematic of emergency medical service preparedness in the Czech Republic, in the place of disaster and during this situation especially in bus accident with large number of injuries and casualties. Bus accident can create high risk of forming mass disaster due to many people transported in small area with low safety components. High risk of many injuries and casualties with chaotic first call make hard decision to activate plans to solve this situation for emergency services. Theoretical part of diploma thesis maps transformation of Czech paramedic system organization from districts to regions and new legislations for emergency medical service that solve preparedness, organization and duties during large incidents. Due to this new legislations were formed offices for emergency preparedness which ensure this preparedness. Practical part of diploma thesis is analysis of Czech paramedic preparedness that solve bus accidents as disaster. For this analysis were used data from regional emergency medical service headquarters (EMS HQ) - bus accident reports, drills for staff and special material equipments. But only 3 EMS HQ provided acceptable data and 1 EMS HQ partly acceptable data. Aim of this study is assessment in preparedness change for disaster during examined time (2000 - 2011) and comparison of real event to training drills. This part of thesis is supplied by statistic data (transformed into graphs) of bus accidents with injuries and casualties from department of Transportation Police of the Czech republic and Fire Rescue Service Directorate. Whole practical part is made by analysis of primary (documents, EMS HQ personal visits) and secondary information (information servers, journals). Within this analysis was made evaluation of Czech emergency medical preparedness for bus accidents with large number of injuries and casualties. This analysis shows that in area of the Czech Republic is missing central directorate for Czech paramedic system. Which is shown in varying material, drill and whole preparedness for disaster situation. This problem is also made by new legislation that were not here before (law for emergency medical system and law notices). High variation of equipments and procedures in solving disasters can cause difficulties during accident intervention on the borders of paramedic regions. For comparison to other countries preparedness is in this thesis mentioned Poland - special training course for specialist in disaster management, USA - Medical Alert Center (MAC) and Israel - control system for disaster drills.

Emergency readiness of the South-Bohemian Region inpatient healthcare facilities and their medical staff
RYTÍŘOVÁ, Zuzana
In the theoretical section of my master thesis I focused especially on the role of the health services within the crisis management. In particular chapters I tried to write down a simple and comprehensive summary of the role of the healthcare within the integrated rescue system, I dealt with the function of the Ministry of Health, the hierarchy of the healthcare in solving the emergencies, the valid law and the crisis preparedness in the healthcare. In one part of my master thesis I also mentioned the importance of testing the professional and practical readiness of particular units of the integrated rescue system by emergency exercises and the characterization of their individual types. Of course I could not omit the crisis planning and a brief description of some chosen types of plans that are used during emergencies.The goal of my thesis was to map the preparedness of the South-Bohemian Region inpatient healthcare facilities for possible emergencies in the respective facility or out of it and the medical staff´s awareness of possible risks and of possible solving the emergencies in the respective facility.In the practical section of my master thesis I used the methods of quantitative research. The technique of this research is based on the questionnaire survey with bounded, half-bounded and open questions. The questionnaire designated for medical staff consists of 23 questions. The first three questions are focused on the characterization of the respondents; the remaining twenty questions are to find out the stock of knowledge related to the crisis preparedness. The respondent gets one point for each correct answer to a knowledge question. This part of the questionnaire is composed as a multiple-choice test and one can get 43 points at most. The questions were created using the crisis plans that are valid in the České Budějovice Hospital. After our mutual agreement I took over the questionnaire designated for healthcare facilities from Mgr. Jolana Němečková, who analysed the crisis preparedness of the South-Moravian Region healthcare facilities in her master thesis. I did not change the method of questionnaire analysis either to enable a subsequent benchmarking of the results in the South-Moravian Region and the South-Bohemian Region. The questionnaire consists of 28 questions. One can get one point for a dichotomous question and two points for a closed-ended question. The highest possible score was 22 points. The results of the questionnaire survey for medical staff show that the preparedness of the České Budějovice Hospital´s medical staff is at a very good level. The average score was 37 out of 43 points and that complies with the classification 2. When analysing the relation of the preparedness with the highest achieved education level and the preparedness with the length of the practice, the positive correlation was confirmed. That means that the higher achieved education and the longer practice, the more was the knowledge of the respective area. The results of the questionnaire survey for the inpatient healthcare facilities management are not so positive. The average score was 12.3 and that complies almost with the classification 4, which means a bad preparedness. In comparison with the South-Moravian Region healthcare facilities, the preparedness in the South-Bohemian Region is one level worse. For the purposes of my master thesis I set four hypotheses that were proved or falsified during a follow-up statistical assessment. Hypotheses No. 1 and No. 2 cannot be accepted. Hypotheses No. 3 and No. 4 were accepted.

The use of non-governmental organizations in organizing emergency survival and humanitarian aid in crisis situations on the South Bohemian Region
POLLAK, Ondřej
Non-governmental organizations are not completely defined terms in Czech legal system. It is a stable name combining several different organizations that are not established by the state and are designed to charitable activities or non-profit activity for private benefit. There are some of these organizations on the South Bohemian Region that are involved in the action in crisis situations in the form of such organization emergency survival and humanitarian aid. Use of non-governmental organizations is currently treated in the South Bohemia Emergency Plan and the South Bohemia Crisis Plan. This work aims to define the concepts of non-governmental organizations, emergency survival and humanitarian aid and to assess whether it is currently using Non-governmental organizations for emergency survival and humanitarian aid in crisis situations of the Region at a good level. In the first part of the thesis are defined on the basis of statutory regulations basic types of non-profit organizations and civic associations, charitable organizations, foundations, endowment funds and special purpose equipment registered churches and religious societies. In the description of non-governmental organizations, the work focuses on the conditions of their formation and their organizational structure. Further, the first part deals with the actual crisis management and crisis situations, which are the state of danger, state of emergency, state of jeopardy, state of war. It describes the conditions of their publication and persons who are responsible for this. Furthermore, in the section on crisis management discuss terms of emergency survival and emergency humanitarian aid, which are areas in which lies a large share of the work of non-governmental organizations in addressing the crisis. Shortly author in his thesis describes the sector of emergency survival. Given that the management of emergencies and crisis situations are currently drafting of legislation, which, inter alia, the duty to county emergency management authorities to draw up the documents that describe the content of their individual actions for the event of an emergency and crisis states, bachelor thesis describes two of these basic documents. These are the emergency plan and crisis plan, In the case of the emergency plan of the region is to be noted plans of specific activities, among which is this bachelor thesis essential emergency survival plan. In the second main part of the thesis is an overview of non-governmental organizations in the South Bohemian Region that are able to participate in solving emergency survival and humanitarian aid. The text describes the different non-governmental organizations in the South Bohemian Region and further described their contribution in organizing emergency survival and humanitarian aid. Along the way structured interviews with representatives of non-governmental organizations described in South Bohemia, information was obtained on the possibilities of these organizations if the organization survival and humanitarian aid in crisis situation in the South Bohemian Region. Furthermore, this thesis in the second part deals with the panel of non-governmental organizations, which is a platform for cooperation of non-governmental organizations and South Bohemian County in crisis situations. On the basis of the research is to compare the current use of non-governmental organizations in South Bohemia in resolving crisis situations with the options selected non-profit organizations. The whole work is based on research questions whether the use of non-governmental organizations in organizing emergency survival and humanitarian aid is currently at a good level.

The equipment and documents of the rescue team in a municipality with a larger field if its activities
NĚMEC, Petr
This work is deating with relevant questions about crisis centre equipment with both documentation and material. The greatest break point of this topic was the year of 2003, when district authorities were abolished and new municipalities responsible for crisis business came to existence. These municipalities organize crisis headquarters for the solution of emergency situations. These crisis centres must be equiped with materials and documentations properly. Nowadays in South Bohemia these crisis centres are well equiped, which was found aut by the research in South Bohemia Region. The documentations both essential and instructive are very well elaborated and there are not any missing materials. As for the missing equipment in smaller municipalities a Fire Brigade provides the material.

South Bohemian inhabitants opinion of activity of other bodies of Integrated Rescue Systems
DUŠKOVÁ, Ilona
The aim of this study was to identify and evaluate the opinion of South Bohemian region inhabitants on activities of the Integrated Rescue System (IRS) other emergency services in rescue and relief work in emergency situations and find out the resulting level of inhabitants safety. The whole study was designed to analyze the data collected by questionnaire survey and to obtain relevant information about the opinion of the South Bohemian region inhabitants on the work of the Army of the Czech Republic, the Czech Red Cross and the municipal police within IRS. A questionnaire survey seemed to be the best way how to get relevant information. The pilot study helped to identify the three other emergency services of IRS in the opinion of the inhabitants. At a subsequent questionnaire survey the research sample was 50 respondents from each of seven South Bohemian districts, a total of 350 respondents from districts České Budějovice, Český Krumlov, Jindřichův Hradec, Písek, Prachatice, Strakonice and Tábor. The results of this research show that three quarters of respondents do not exactly know the term "other emergency services of IRS", despite the fact that some of the respondents have personal experience with the intervention of some other emergency services of IRS during an emergency situation. So it can be concluded that the South Bohemian region inhabitants have more awareness of the IRS as a whole, but they are no longer sufficiently familiar with its structure. To increase the level of knowledge about the structure of the IRS?s components I recommend to include more detailed information about this topic in the primary school curriculum. It also proposes to increase public awareness about IRS structure through media campaigns. Activities of the Army of the Czech Republic within IRS were judged as very helpful and on quite sufficient level. Individuals who have had personal experience with - 5 - the intervention of soldiers such as rescue, relief work and evacuation, evaluate their help as efficient and very professional. The personal experience with the help of the Czech Red Cross in emergency situations (especially floods) has one quarter of respondents. Red Cross Humanitarian units helped in these cases mainly with the provision of emergency accommodation and catering. Czech Red Cross was also focused on the collecting and distributing of humanitarian aid. Almost 86% of respondents judged these activities as very professional and efficient. Respondents are not convinced about sufficiently help of municipal police in the case of emergency situation. Some of them rate it as rather weak. Likewise, they considered that each municipal police in South Bohemian region have some reserves in facilities such as car park. However, 41% of respondents agree that the quality of the activities of this emergency service is increasing in the last few years. My recommendation in this case refers to an increase in the number of service cars. Based on the obtained data, the ranking of other emergency services of IRS was compiled according to their significance in respondents? opinion. On the first three positions are these emergency service - Army of the Czech Republic, municipal police, Czech Red Cross. Summary of the obtained information indicates a positive finding that the three analyzed other emergency services of IRS are very helpful in protection of health, life and property of the inhabitants of South Bohemian region within the IRS activities. However, I believe that my recommendations presented in this study may contribute to further improving the performance of the three analyzed emergency services so that their perception of the South Bohemian region inhabitants can achieve an even higher level in the future.

Planning of municipality specialized on solving of emergency measures
UHROVÁ, Šárka
Today's world is sensitive and fragile. With the growing number of emergencies caused by natural causes, there is a growing need to effectively prevent such events and minimize their impact on lives, health, property and the environment. These problems are solved in the area of crisis management, which is at excellent level in the Czech Republic. Crisis management is firmly anchored in the Czech legislation, especially in so-called emergency legislation, and described in specialized publications. It is a system of crisis management bodies as defined by Act No. 240/2000 Coll., On Crisis Management, who have roles and responsibilities to secure the necessary protection. This thesis describes the system in detail together with another integral part of crisis management contingency planning. The product of crisis planning is the crisis documentation which serves to the crisis management bodies for solving of emergency situations, i.e. large-scale disasters during which a state of emergency was declared. There is one controversial point in this area which this work deals with whether the municipality as a legal entity should prepare an emergency preparedness plan for facilities that can be used to carry out emergency measures. This point is included in the objective of the thesis, i.e. to evaluate the current planning documentation of the municipality aimed at solving emergency measures. It is covered also by the research question whether municipalities prepare plans as recommended by the Ministry of Interior or by the respective municipality with extended authority. It was found out that municipalities keep crisis documentation in cases of risk that their administrative areas get endangered by an emergency. Contingency plans are elaborated in fewer cases. With exceptions, if municipalities have in their possession a facility which could be used in carrying out emergency measures, no emergency preparedness plan is usually prepared for such premises. Based on these findings, the thesis comes with a plan which could be used by municipalities to deal with emergencies or crisis situations and buildings usable in the fulfilment of crisis measures of accommodation and provision of food. The plan consists of three parts: The 1st part would contain basic information about the town (number of residents, size of the area, water areas, information on Crisis Staff, etc.), the 2nd part would be divided into two other parts. Part A would address emergencies and crisis situations in the form of a list of tasks that the municipality would have to fulfil, in chronological order from the threat detection to damage documenting. This part would be organized into three sections. The first section would cover the tasks that the municipality would have to fulfil before an emergency occurs, the second section would include practices for events that already occurred and the third section would contain tasks needed after its ending. Part A would contain a description of cooperation with the regional Fire Brigade and bodies of emergency management according to applicable laws. Part B would apply to buildings owned by the municipality, which could be used to carry out crisis measures of accommodation and provision of food. It would contain a list of these premises, instructions on when and how the facility can be used in state of emergency, and information about the needed number of people and the amount of stock, etc., including how to get them. The 3rd part of the plan would consist of supplements. This documentation would be beneficial for municipalities, as they would have accurate and well-arranged materials based on which they could proceed. It would actually be two plans in one, securing easier handling and organization for the municipalities. The documentation should be prepared even in cases when there is no immediate threat to the town because of its geographic position.
