Home hospice care from the perspective of family members of the incurably ill.
SVOBODOVÁ, Anna
The goal of my thesis I have chosen is to identify the way hospice care is perceived in the Telč region by family members of terminally ill patients. I based my thesis on available specialised literature, current legislation and internet sources dealing with home hospice care. In the first theoretical part, I deal with the definition of hospice care trying to explain the term of general and specialised care that have a common objective, namely dignified and tranquil dying. The second section deals with family in the context of palliative care that plays the key role in the patient care. If the family decides to care for the incurable patient at home, it is vital to support it. Moreover, in this section I define needs of family members summarised in three core topics. Including the care for the patient family that I included to the hospice care as not only the patient suffers from the illness but all his/her family does. That means that each family member needs palliative care. The end of this section deals with mourning of the survivors. The core point is not leaving them alone in their mourning, to have them accompanied by someone in their grief. The third chapter focuses on the role and position of the patient. It changes when a seriously ill human becomes dependent on third party´s help losing his/her capacity to fulfil his/her professional and family role. This enormously affects his/her physical and emotional condition. Moreover, I describe needs on terminally ill people that change when the patient approaches his/her death depending on his/her family and social situation. It changes also during his/her adaptation to adverse diagnoses and forecast and emergence of difficulties and complications. I describe four groups of needs: biological, psychological, social and spiritual. The fourth chapter characterises home hospice care that is described as specialised palliative care provided in the home environment amidst patient´s family and friends. I describe the history of Czech hospice care stating that before the WWII it was quite normal to care for terminally ill patients at home till the end. This trend emerges again in the 90s. I define objectives of the home hospice care and related activities. The fourth chapter includes the description of a multi-disciplinary team and funding of home hospice care. In the fifth chapter, I characterise the home care organisation that try to expand the range of services by including the home palliative care and also deal with the home care history, objectives, delimitation of the scope of activities, agency human resources management and home funding methods. In the sixth chapter, I represent the organisation Sdílení, o.p.s. Telč, services provided by it and basic duties according to the Act No.108/2006 Coll. as well as the mission and objectives of this organisation concentrating on help and support of seriously ill people and their family members/friends in such difficult life situation. The key objective of Sdílení is to preserve maximum possible self-sufficiency and dignity of seriously ill people and support of families that are able to find the courage and force to accompany a terminally ill family member to the end of his/her life. In the practical part of my thesis, I analyse data collected by means of qualitative research based on an inquiry in the form of semi-standardised and open-code processing. Who was included to the basic file were family members of terminally ill patients who were divided to two parts. The first group consists of 3 respondents who were entrusted to the care of the home hospice Sdílení. The second group are 3 respondents entrusted to the Home Care hospice. In the practical part, I describe the process of collection of data, record results of the interview process by the open-code method.

Home care in the Czech Republic and in Austria with emphasis on long-term entirely immobile clients
SVOBODOVÁ, Anna
Home care has already become an integral part of taking care of patients suffering of long-term sickness. I focused on the quality of home care and its current state in Czech Republic and in Austria. Experience earned in the Austrian domestic care attracted me the way that I decided to examine it closer. I set the objective to find the differences between the care in Czech and Austrian home care and the differences in relations between care workers and clients. I used available scientific literature, legislation valid in Austria and Czech Republic, and sources from the Internet related to the home care. My bachelor thesis consists of the theoretical part, which contains four chapters. In the first chapter I deal with immobility, where the main manifestation is the motion, which stimulates the motion apparatus and has a positive impact on the psyche of man. The target group for a long-term care are seniors, people with disabilities and chronically sick people. In the third chapter I characterize home and social care, which is described as highly qualified and professional form of care, which is linked with the health and social form. In Czech Republic, 2/3 of care delivered by agencies is focused on health issues, but it is in close cooperation with subsidiary agencies aimed at nursing services. Home care in Austria is not divided into health services, nursing or social services. This care provides complex services. Linking health and social care helps the client to find life stability. This care substitutes hospitalization and it shall be granted in its own environment, what affects the psyche of the client very favourably and it significantly affects whole recovery process. The fourth, and the last, chapter of the theoretical part deals with the personality of carer, when the carer is the worker, who carries out the care activity in the household of clients. Furthermore I describe here detailed assumptions to the work of the carer, the difference between committed and uncommitted worker, an integral part are competences and skill requirements placed upon the carer in Czech Republic and in Austria, and part of the conclusion is the sample of financial evaluation of carer in home care in concerned countries. The practical part of my bachelor thesis consists of collection of data, collected while using techniques of the qualitative research, the method of query based on using semi-structured interview, observation and analysis of personal data. Characteristic of the target group was created by communicative clients of Czech and Austrian home care, who carried II, III, IV degree of dependence. The respondents were three women from Dačice and three women from Raabs an der Thaya. Further I describe the process of the data collection and results of interviews. On the basis of my research, I came to the conclusion that there exists a difference in the relationship between carers and clients in compared services. Due to busyness, there is My research showed, that the Austrian care is historically older, so it may be the reason for better sophistication of whole system, it is economically more stable and, therefore, more financial sources flow to the system of this service, and that is reflected in the personnel and the financial evaluation of the staff. After pointing at the differences in the system of care, which is different in examined countries, my conclusion is, that the degree and the content of delivered services provided in both countries is the same, it is only provided in a different way. Clients are, in both home cares, health and socially secured, and this allows them, under the burden of their diseases, to stay at home in the environment, where they like it and where they feel safe. This theory is one of the objectives of home care, to ensure bio-psycho-socio needs of man. Czech and Austrian home care fully meets these basic objectives.
