PECHOVÁ, Adéla
The aim of the bachelor's thesis was to find out how home for the elderly workers view their client's death, also to see if there is a difference in perspective between the social worker and the social services worker. A qualitative research investigation was used to find answers. Queries were used as a method of collecting data. The qualitative research technique was applied in a semi structured interview. The research set was composed with 6 workers of homes for the elderly. Social workers and workers in social services were represented in equal proportions. Homes for the elderly were chosen by random selection from homes in the South Bohemia Region. An open-coding method was used to evaluate the result. Research has shown that home for the elderly workers view their client's death as part of their job. This view was influenced by practice in arranged initially for them death was taboo, but with the length of practice their perspective changed and they are able to talk about death with clients. The research also found that the difference in the view of death by a social worker and a worker in social services was minimal. It also found out what the difference is between a facility that provides palliative care and a facility that does not use palliative care. Workers homes for the elderly practicing palliative care are used to and taught to interact more with the dying clients. It can make it easier for them to deal with the their death. The use of this bachelor's thesis is varied. It can be used as information material for the management of homes for the elderly, which it can serve as a basis for finding the help of individual workers of a home for the elderly. Another use of this bachelor's thesis may be to inspire other social work students to research the subject.
