Emergency preparedness of inpatient medical facilities of a non-university type in the South Moravian Region
NĚMEČKOVÁ, Jolana
Society today is increasingly exposed to the effects of emergencies. These situations not only affect the normal functioning of the society but also the functioning of medical facilities. The preparedness of medical facilities is a very important factor influencing the success in dealing with emergencies and crisis situations. The preparedness of the health care system as a whole consists of all medical facilities in the Czech Republic. Therefore, it is desirable that they are prepared to address them. The objective of the thesis, in its theoretical part, was to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of crisis preparedness in medical facilities. The practical part was intended to introduce in more detail the territory of the South Moravian Region and its issues and to map out emergency preparedness in the specified research set. The research set included medical facilities in the region that are not university hospitals but that are part of the region traumatology plan. The data on this issue was collected using a questionnaire. The questionnaire was in a format of selected work indicators of emergency preparedness and it was uniform for all the respondents. The work indicators were as follows: theoretical preparedness, organizational preparedness and practical preparedness. Based on the questionnaire survey, analysis of the results and determining the average level of preparedness of all the participating medical facilities, it was concluded that the preparedness of the medical facilities of a non-university type in the South Moravian Region is very diverse: from hospitals whose preparedness is excellent to those who do not reach the required basis. In the overall assessment, 40.0 % of the respondents did not reach the determined average. Overall, the level of preparedness of the research set can be seen as slightly below average. To increase the level of preparedness of non-university medical facilities, it is suggested, for example, to create unified procedures for processing various types of plans, to assign each medical facility the obligation to employ a professional emergency manager, and to establish cooperation among individual medical facilities.

KOTRČOVÁ, Ivana
Incidence of injury is currently the third leading cause of death in the Czech Republic. A good link between pre-hospital emergency care and hospital care becomes a priority. Nurses play an important role during an acute admission of patients with trauma to in-hospital care, they are the connecting link of all members of the multidisciplinary team, whose common mission is the patient and saturation of his /her needs. With the changing role of nurses in the modern concept of nursing, nurses become equal partners of physicians and other health care professionals. To be accepted by other members of the team and to be able to work with the full extent of her sphere of action in the acute phase of a trauma patient admission, she has to know perfectly her competencies under the applicable legislation. In the theoretical part the roles and responsibilities of nurses under the applicable legislation are defined. There are also chapters dealing with individual injuries and the organization of care for patients with trauma. In the final section of the theoretical part there is a chapter dealing with the holistic care for patients, including ethical care issues, the role of a patient and the importance of cooperation with the family of the trauma patient who is acutely admitted into the hospital. In the empirical part of the thesis three objectives were stated. To determine the cooperation of nurses with other members of the multidisciplinary team, as well as to find out whether the nurses involved in the admission of a trauma patient into hospital know their own competencies under the Decree No. 424/2004 Coll. The third objective was to determine how trauma patients perceive the process of admission to the hospital. Based on these objectives two hypotheses and two research questions were established. The objectives were successfully met, both hypotheses were confirmed and the questions answered. The research was conducted on the basis of a quantitative qualitative survey at departments of selected hospitals where the patients with acute trauma emergency were directed by emergency medical services. For the quantitative research the interviewing method using questionnaires was selected. Interviews with patients were conducted by the qualitative research method. The respondents were 117 nurses and 5 patients.

Analysis of Information in Chosen Emergencies
Řehoř, Jiří ; Toman, Prokop (advisor) ; Pavlíček, Antonín (referee)
This thesis focuses on an analysis of information in emergencies. Initial background regards two terrorist actions, namely 11 September 2001 in the U.S. and 7 July 2005 in London. In addition to the well-known official versions, the thesis also describes the so-called unofficial versions of these events. Awareness of both versions may be used to assess the impact of various elements on the analysis of information in emergencies from the perspective of the "ordinary" public as well as various analysts, government and military officials. The thesis also introduces positions of individual entities on analysis of informa-tion directly in the course as well as following the above-mentioned incidents. Finally, after analyzing the available information, I suggest the solution of a different type of incident, which is set out in detail at the end.
