Education of children with autism in the family
HLAVÁČKOVÁ, Kateřina
Work on "Education of a child with autism in the family" consists of a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part deals with the matter of individuals of autistic spectrum. It describes the specifics of the disorder, how it manifests itself and what areas are affected. It focuses on parents' adoption of the child's disability and how other family members and their environment can respond to it. A key issue is the upbringing of a child with autism, its characteristics, educational opportunities and social support to families. The practical part describes the development and education of a child with autism. How the family coped with this fact, a difficult path to diagnosis, adjustment in family life and family support.

Problems of family integration into the care about a terminally ill client in home background
HLAVÁČKOVÁ, Kateřina
The theoretical part has six chapters: End of life and dying, Palliate care, Home hospice multidisciplinary team, Specific of care about a terminally ill patient in home background, Family and caregivers, Specifics of care about dying people in the CR. The second, practical part is based on qualitative-quantitative research with three goals. The first goal was to define the needs of family members caring about a terminally ill person in domestic background. The second goal was to define the skills of nurses necessary for saturation of the needs of family members caring about a terminally ill person in domestic background, and the last goal was to specify the present drawbacks of the care upon the research results. The following research questions were set in the qualitative part of the research: 1. What factors lead to decision of a family to participate in the care about a terminally ill person in domestic background? 2. What factors prevent families from integration into the care about a terminally ill person in domestic background? 3. What skills are necessary for a nurse in the process of family integration into the care about a terminally ill client in home background? The research sample of the qualitative research consisted of six respondents having experience with care about a dying patient in domestic background. A semi structured interview consisting of six questions was the research method of this part of the thesis. The questions focused on the care about a dying family member in home background. The following hypotheses may be deduced from the research: 1. Giving information to lay caregivers before releasing a terminally ill client to domestic treatment within education contributes to their active involvement in the care. 2. Participation of a mobile hospice team in the care about a terminally ill client in home background contributes to saturation of the needs of certainty and safety of the caregivers. The following hypotheses were set at the beginning of the quantitative research: 1. Respondent?s feeling of inability to participate in the care is an obstacle to the decision to start caring about a terminally ill person in home background. 2. Fear of economic risk is an obstacle to the decision to start caring about a terminally ill person in home background. 3. Utilization of professional services in the care about a terminally ill person in home background depends on awareness of their existence and the extent of services being provided. The research sample consisted of 198 persons from the wide public. The data were collected by means of a questionnaire. The questionnaires examined the readiness of the respondents to decide to start caring about a terminally ill person in home background and their awareness of the existence of institutions providing palliative care in home background. The first two hypotheses were confirmed by the results of the questionnaire research, the third one was not confirmed. A manual for general nurses ?Care about a dying client in home background? and an ?Informational leaflet for laics? deciding on caring about someone close in home background, which form a part hereof, were elaborated upon the results of the research.

Influence of Basal Stimulation on a Possibility of Transition to the Reconciliation Phase according to Elisabeth Kübler Ross
HLAVÁČKOVÁ, Kateřina
While the numbers of incurable patients continues to rise, it follows that the nursing care of incurable and dying people is getting more important. Naturally the dying patient is the most exacting patient of all from the nurses point of view, and needs individual care and empathy. This work of mine is called {\clqq}Influence of Basal Stimulation on a Possibility of Transition to the Reconciliation Phase according to Elisabeth Kübler Ross``. It has been divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part consists of five chapters: The Basal Stimulation which is the art of being in contact with the patient, The Terminal Stage, The Needs of the Dying Person, The Palliative Care, and finally The Usage of Basal Stimulation as part of the Palliative Care. The second practical part consists of qualitative research, which has two goals. The first goal was to assure whether utilisation of the concept of Basal Stimulation influences the adaptation and life of the terminally ill patient in order to focus upon the transition from depression phase to the phase of acceptance. The second goal was to ensure that the influence of Basal Stimulation manifests itself upon the patient in the expression of discomfort in comparison to the effect prescribed medication and common nursing care administered in the hospice. Fundamental research was established upon the following basic questions: 1. Should the application of the basal Stimulation concept influence the transition to the acceptance phase according to Elizabeth Kübler Ross? 2. Should the use of the basal stimulation generally increase the overall comfort ot the terminally ill patient? 3. Whether the concept of basal stimulation assists to deepen the interaction between the patient and his/her nearest next of kin? I chose eight patients whose behaviour and reactions I closely observed. Half of them were cared for utilising the concept of basal stimulation at Jan Nepomuk Neumann Hospice in Prachatice. The second half were cared for in Štrasburk Hospice in Prague using the common nursing practices of that hospice. The observation was carried out with the cooperation of nurses working in both hospices. The results which were obtained were noted for all eight case reports. The case studies compare against the following research the phases of depression to acceptance. For a more complex perception of the observed clients each case study is completed by medical and nursing diagnosis. The results of the entire research lead us to following hypothesis: The presence of the next of kin and their participation in the care of the ill are conducive to holistic care for the dying person just like it is to every human being. I suggest that these results which the research has given should be used in medical schools, in the departments of palliative care for the advancement in the education of health workers who care for dying patients. I also recomend that the basal stimulation concept be applied to the standards of nursing care in the department of palliative care.

Subprime crisis and behaviour of central banks in reaction to this crisis
Hlaváčková, Kateřina ; Kovářík, Tomáš (advisor) ; Janíčko, Martin (referee)
This essay deals with emergence, collapse and concequences of the credit crisis called subprime crisis culminating in the August of 2007. There are J.A. Schumpeter's economic theories used in this work that are relevant to discuss the beginning and developement of this crisis. As importat of these theories I consider the theory of business cycle which may be applied to Great Depression from the Thirties of Twentieth Century. At the beginning of this thesis I am focusing on the theory of endogenous money as a fundament for financial crisis analyse. Further I argue about the behaviour of bankers changing within the business cycle. I describe the behaviour of Federal Reserve officials over the course of the subprime crisis and subsequently the response of the central banks to the crisis. Finally I deal with the Minsky's perspective on the credit crunch.
