Use of quantifying nursing care for acute psychiatric wards of general hospitals.
 ŠIMEČKOVÁ, Marie
The bachelor thesis focuses on special nursing care performed by the nurses in the acute psychiatric ward of a selected general hospital. The theoretical part deals with the care provided in these departments, the most common mental disorders, the ward regime, the competencies of the nurses and the eligibility to carry out the performances and the nursing process that is related to the providing of nursing care. The aims of the thesis and the hypotheses: The aim of the bachelor thesis was to inventory special nursing performances, determine their average time demands and determine the duration of total nursing care in selected groups of patients. We have set three aims, one research question and two hypotheses. The research question was established to determine the special nursing care performances that are carried out the most frequently at the given department. The established hypotheses assumed different time requirements for selected nursing performances and nursing care in selected patient groups. Methodology: A quantitative survey was used in the research part using the Method for determining the number and quantification of the attending staff in the standard treatment units for adults from Pochylá and Pochylý (2008). Structured observation using a record sheet was employed. Research file: General nurses and nurses with specialized competencies working at the psychiatric ward of the general hospital. Results: Twenty special nursing performances were inventoried, of which 261 frequencies were recorded. The highest frequency was the submission of per os medication. Hypotheses have been verified. Average time values for individual nursing activities of special nursing care differ. The longest duration was established in patients with schizophrenia and the shortest duration was found in patients with depression. Practical Use: The results of a research survey can be used to update a methodology consistent with current trends.
