Kuznetsova, Sofya ; Angelovská, Olga (advisor) ; Jusić, Mirna (referee)
The topic of care for seniors considers a variety of aspects related not only to the elderly people themselves but also to their relatives or other caretakers and, usually, to the institutions. Those are, for instance, the institutions providing long-term care at home or in special facilities. In the case of Russia, there are two main dimensions of long-term care for elderly people. The first option is care provided by the state, and the second one is private care provided by non- governmental facilities or by people not belonging to any company. The following thesis aims to research which options for elderly long-term care provided by the state are available for people. The paper consists of an introduction, theoretical framework, methodological part, analytical part, discussion, and a conclusion. Using familisation and defamilisation theory, this thesis investigates and analyses the elderly care options provided by the state in Russia via conducting document analysis. Keywords: elderly care, long-term care, elderly people, Russia

Churá, Monika ; Angelovská, Olga (advisor) ; Kotherová, Zuzana (referee)
The bachelor thesis focuses on formal caregivers in retirement homes and their role in fulfilling the wishes of the elderly. It describes the system of individual planning and presents its concrete form on the example of a home for the elderly established by the Central Bohemia Region. The case study uses semi-structured interviews with seven formal caregivers of the retirement home and an internal methodology of individual planning. The work captures the attitudes of the caregivers towards individual planning and the ways in which they deal with this task. The analysis demonstrates the importance of collaboration between the home's staff and the role of the individual planning coordinator in managing key workers. Carers' attitudes to individual planning can be classified on a spectrum of subjective rejection/acceptance. This rejection/acceptance is related to perceptions of the benefits and appropriateness of the current form of individual planning. The main problems faced by formal caregivers in individual planning are identified. These include lack of clarity about individual planning and a lack of understanding of its importance not only by caregivers but also by the clients. Some caregivers do not identify with the principle of individual planning in its current form and exclude it from the...

The Search for the Boundary of Adulthood in a Life-Cycle Perspective
Voráčková, Barbora ; Angelovská, Olga (advisor) ; Ochrana, František (referee)
Tato diplomová práce se soustředí na téma přechodu z vysoké školy na trh práce, které je spojené s nabytím plné dospělosti. Nabytí plné dospělosti je dále provázeno překročením dalších tradičních milníků, jakými jsou osamostatnění se od rodiny, a to jak po finanční, tak po residenční stránce. Dále vstup do manželství a rodičovství. Důležité jsou také proměny vnitřního vnímání životní role. Práce je postavena na teorii životního cyklu, jelikož se zabývá fázemi lidského života a dále na Arnettově (2000) teorii vynořující se dospělosti, která předpokládá vznik nové životní fáze mezi adolescencí a dospělostí. Za účelem sběru výzkumných dat bylo uskutečněno 22 rozhovorů s 11 magisterskými studenty v posledním ročníku studia. Rozhovory se konaly ve dvou fázích, jedna před tím, než respondenti ukončili studium a druhá s odstupem asi 9 měsíců. Cílem bylo zjistit, jak respondenti vnímají svou životní roli, co pro ně znamená dospělost a jaké problémy provází překračování milníků tradičně spojovaných s nabytím dospělosti. Respondenti souzněli s konceptem vynořující se dospělosti a úplná dospělost pro ně znamenala zejména přijmout plnou zodpovědnost. Tradiční milníky vnímaly také jako relevantní, vstup do manželství a rodičovství nevnímali jako zásadní pro nabytí dospělosti, ale jako její finální fázi....
