Contraception of Parents´ Eyes and Cooperation with Midwife
ŠLINCOVÁ, Jana
Contraception is one of the forms of negative parenthood planning which incorporates the effort and measures to regulate population and prevent unwanted pregnancy. At present there are a large number of modern contraception products but not each method is suitable for each woman or couple. Therefore, education in this issue is necessary, in particular for adolescent girls. Parents have the greatest influence on the sexual development of their child since they are the first and the most important teachers of sex education for their child. So it is important that the parents are educated in the field of contraception and are able to advise their daughters. Within the scope of nursing care, a midwife shall assist and educate women in selection of a suitable contraception. The theoretical part is focused on contraception methods, the role of family in sex education and on the education of midwives. The practical part addresses parents? awareness of contraception, and the chances of midwives to provide education in the area of planned parenthood and contraception. To handle the given issue, qualitative research in combination with quantitative research was selected. The quantitative research was conducted in the form of anonymous questionnaires intended for parents of secondary-school girls. The qualitative research used the method of interviews with midwives in gynaecology-obstetrics offices in České Budějovice. Four objectives and associated hypotheses and research questions were set. Objective 1: To ascertain the knowledge of parents concerning the methods, effects, reliability and other issues of contraception. Objective 2: To ascertain what criteria parents use to select the contraception for their children. Objective 3: To ascertain whether parents prefer information on contraception from a midwife in a gynaecologist?s office to other information sources. Objective 4: To ascertain whether a midwife has a chance to inform parents of contraception methods within the scope of her educational activity. The objectives have been fulfilled. Hypothesis 1: ?Parents have information on contraception methods? has been confirmed. Hypothesis 2 and Hypothesis 3, namely that parents leave the decision in the matter of contraception to their child and that the main criterion for the selection of contraception is high reliability, have also been confirmed. Hypothesis 4: ?Parents prefer information on contraception from other sources to the information from a midwife? has also been confirmed. The qualitative research has revealed that midwives are well-informed on the latest trends of contraception due to the frequent visits of gynaecologist?s offices by dealers of pharmacological companies. It also follows from the results that the provider of fundamental information is a medical doctor. Although the education in the area of planned parenthood and contraception falls within their competence, midwives do not play any significant role in education concerning this issue. This bachelor thesis may serve as a source of information and a study material for further midwife students. The thesis may also be used as an educational material for midwives at work and for future users who think of using any of contraception methods.

Application of sex education in facilities services social care for persons with disabilities
SVATOŠOVÁ, Alena
Abstract The theoretical part is divided into two chapters. The first one focuses on the general definition of used terminology, explains the concept of a person with disabilities, classifies types of facilities, social care and presents conceptual link the phenomena of sex, gender and sexuality. The second chapter develops a particular view on a specific area of sexuality and sex education of handicapped people. The whole work is to extend mainstreaming the gender dimension, serving as a possible point of view on this issue. The research aims to determine the level of awareness in the methodology of sex education for employees working in organizations, which sponsor the provision of social welfare services, and to investigate if this method is applied to education in practice, or what its level is. The operational objective investigation is to determine the ability of clients of these facilities to reflect and apply the acquired knowledge, acquired through sex education implemented, if the provision of services is conducted. The dual dimension of research (staff - clients) was chosen primarily because of treatment feedback on information obtained from the staff. The entire course of the research was determined by beforehand given research questions that arose on the basis of knowledge which are drawn from the literature indebted to the current state of the problem. These questions cover a field of view, following the objective of this research. Overview of research questions: What is the attitude of staff on issues of sexuality of people with health disabilities? What is the awareness of employees about the device and intimate life of partner clients? Are workers trained in methods of organization of sex education of persons with disabilities? Is providing services of sex education of clients in progress? What is the attitude of workers to aspects of gender education? Do clients focus on issues of sexuality? What kind of sex education would be received by clients better: group, individual, gender-defined or mixed? For specific data collection, was used special technique of group discussions through which I obtained the necessary information from the employees of the institution. For the work with clients I chose the technique of an individual interview with the given instructions. The collected data were processed by encoding method, under which the course of interviews and group discussions was written, talked about and divided into areas which were assigned to the questions corresponding to the research ones. Adequate responses were provided with codes from which it was possible to derive the desired conclusion. The result of research presents information on a certain form of education in the field of sexuality, but at a level that is not supported by any methodology. Positive thing on the whole subject remains a clear shift from taboos and social elimination to adoption of sexuality of people with health disabilities as an unquestionable part of their lives. But still the staff misses professional competencies which would support their efforts in solving specific situations relating to sexuality of clients and its manifestations. The possible implementation of sex education would be accepted by clients gratefully, as some of them are completely lost in this sphere of human being. This work could open any questions in the implementation of sex education and the possible beginning of its organization. The staff could be assisted by the model report on sexuality and relationships of people with disabilities included in enclosed work.

BŘEZKOVÁ, Markéta
The sexually transmitted diseases represent an important and extensive problem at present; to the prevention of this problem, not sufficient attention is devoted each time. For this reason, I focused my bachelor thesis on the topic Share of individual social and educational factors on the knowledge of pupils of the 9th classes of the upper primary schools in Český Krumlov. One of the conditions, how to improve the prevention of these diseases is the knowledge of the share of individual educational and social factors influencing, in relation to these diseases, acquiring the knowledge by pupils and creation their opinions and attitudes. The target of the thesis is to evaluate the share of individual educational factors (school, family, media, groups of identically old pupils) in acquiring and development of knowledge of pupils in upper primary schools in Český Krumlov about sexually transmitted diseases. Simultaneously the reserves in the quality of the educational activities of individual factors are being searched. The share of the school, family, media and other factors in acquiring knowledge and creation of attitudes to the risk of the sexually transmitted diseases was found out by the quantitative method. The representative target group of pupils of the 9th classes of the primary schools in Český Krumlov was addressed in the form of anonymous questionnaires. Simultaneously, specially created questionnaires for pedagogues were distributed. The pupils learn the most information about sexually transmitted diseases at school, but their attitudes to this topic are also influenced by the family, friends and media, in the not negligible extent. This bachelor thesis can contribute, as source of topical information to the followed issue, to deepening the professional knowledge of the teachers of primary schools, employees in the field of public health protection and parents, participating in the prevention of the sexually transmitted diseases.

Primary Prevention of Sexuality and Sexually Transmitted Diseases in Příbram Region
HROMÍŘOVÁ, Andrea
This bachelor thesis is called ?Primary Prevention of Sexuality and Sexually Transmitted Diseases in the Region of Příbram.? The aim of primary prevention is to prevent undesirable phenomena or first experience with them and to delay the first contact with them as late as possible. This prevention in primary schools is provided by school prevention methodologists who ensure appropriate activities for their pupils. Early initiation of sexual life is a major problem at present. Adolescents often feel physically mature, however, from the psychological point of view, they are not. They seek acquaintances and change them very often and thus, increase the risk of unwanted pregnancies and related abortions, the risk of infection by a sexually transmitted disease and other risks. The main objective of my thesis was to map primary prevention of sexual education and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases in the region of Příbram. In the part of the thesis called ? The Current State? historical development of this issue, current paradigms, the general concept of prevention of sexuality, the target group of primary prevention, possibilities of contraception and sexually transmitted diseases are characterized. The data for my thesis were collected by quantitative research, by the method of questioning and by means of an anonymous questionnaire. The research sample was selected in two primary schools ? in a primary school in Příbram and in a rural primary school in the region of Příbram. The respondents were pupils from the ninth grade and were approached during their lessons and in my presence. Thus, the return of 100 % of questionnaires was ensured. The key fact, revealed by the research, is that the subject of sexual education is realized more in primary schools in the town of Příbram and it is not realized almost at all in the rural primary schools. In contrast, the fact that the participation of pupils in a prevention program that is realized outside the scope of the subject of sexual education and is focused on risky sexual behaviour is lower in the primary school of Příbram, compared to the rural primary schools of the region of Příbram. The results of my bachelor thesis can be used for further research and also for implementation of more effective primary prevention.

The midwife's role in the sex education of the basic school pupils
KADLECOVÁ, Zdeňka
The midwie?ves role in the sex education of the elementary school pupils Sex education should be, in the first place, a matter of parenting or family education, yet it should be a natural part of school education. At present, sex education is part of the elementary school curriculum and its classes are based on verbal/visual concept, which includes all drawbacks of our system of education. Despite being trained and schooled at universities, future teachers have no possibility to become familiar with the issues relating to sex education due to their study programmes. One of the crucial problems that prevents smooth implementation of sex education at elementary schools is teachers? incompetence in this specific area. The author sees a possible solution in collaboration between teachers and medical staff (midwives, doctors) when providing sex education of pupils. The objective of the thesis at hand was to observe sex education awareness among elementary school pupils, their interest in sex education as a part of elementary school curriculum, and to identify whether there is an interest of the school management in hiring a midwife to tutor the sex education classes. To meet the objective, a quantitative research combined with a qualitative one was selected. The research was carried out at elementary schools in České Budějovice and the research corpus, which was created for the purposes of the quantitative research, comprised of elementary school pupils. The qualitative research was based on a selection of teachers teaching at the schools. There were established two hypotheses and one research question. Hypothesis 1 implied that pupils lack awareness of modes of transmission of sexually transmitted diseases. This hypothesis has not been confirmed. Most of the pupils were aware of ways of sexual diseases transmission. Hypothesis 2 implied that pupils are interested in sex education as a part of elementary school curriculum. This hypothesis has been confirmed. The pupils responded that they would welcome more time spent on sex education; they want to retrieve the information mainly from their teachers and parents. While doing the research, the author learned that there was an interest in hiring a midwife to tutor the sex education classes. Two schools already had midwives to teach the classes; two other schools were discussing the possibility of inviting a midwife; and one school showed no interest in the matter. This answered the research question whether schools perceive midwives to be competent persons to tutor sex education classes. The author would welcome if the outcomes of the thesis helped improve the quality of sex education at elementary schools and introduce experts, doctors and midwives to tutor such classes.
