Position of a Nurse in a Multidisciplinary Team that is Taking Care of Retired People
MORAVEC, Martin
Introduction: Each nurse will be part of a multidisciplinary team. The differences will be only in the patients who will take care of them, and the goals and implementation plans of multidisciplinary teams will be proportional to that. However, the essence and intention remain the same. Satisfy the needs of the patient and perceive his needs as needs from a holistic being. To do this, more experts from individual fields in a multidisciplinary team are required, who fully cooperate to achieve this goal. Objective: A total of two objectives were set for the bachelor's thesis. The first goal was to evaluate how nurses perceive their position in a multidisciplinary team that cares for the elderly. The second goal was to find out how nurses perceive the benefits of a multidisciplinary team as such. Methodology: A quantitative method was used for the research survey. A questionnaire collection, where the target groups were nurses working in a multidisciplinary team caring for the elderly. The questionnaire contained 22 closed questions, including one table. Results: The results show that the nurses perceive the contribution of the multidisciplinary team positively as such. Nurses have been shown to feel as complete members of multidisciplinary teams and to work with other members to meet the needs of their patients. Nurses working in functioning multidisciplinary teams also have a better overview of the individual needs of their patients and, with information from the multidisciplinary team, are able to provide better nursing care. Nurses also consider the sharing of information within the multidisciplinary team to be positive. Conclusion: We conclude that a well-functioning multidisciplinary team of nurses is an integral part of proper and quality patient care. The results of this work could be beneficial in the field of education, practice.

Providing Care for Pensioners in the Context of Multi-generation Coexistence in the Family
FLESAROVÁ, Ludmila
This Bachelor's thesis focuses on providing the care for the elderly in a multigenerational cohabitation in the family. The main objective of the thesis was to determine the opinion of the middle generation on the issue of providing care for the elderly within the framework of multigenerational cohabitation in the family. Two partial objectives have been set. The first partial objective consisted in mapping the possibilities of care for the elderly used by families. Another partial objective was to determine the ideas of the families concerning the provision of further care for the elderly. With regard to the thesis objectives, the main research question reads as follows: "How does the middle generation view the provision of care for the elderly within the framework of cohabitation in one household?" The Bachelor's thesis consists of two parts. The theoretical part describes the types of care and social services offered to seniors. The practical part focuses on research. This research was conducted using the qualitative methodology, namely the interviews method. The technique of semi-structured interviews was selected. The research involved eight communication partners. The research indicates that multigenerational cohabitation in the family is more common in the countryside than in the city. It was found that cohabitation suits all the respondents. The care for the elderly is provided mainly by women, yet in some families all members of the household are involved. There are usually good relationships in families with several generations living in one household. Furthermore, the research has shown that multigenerational cohabitation has a number of advantages, yet tolerance and respect among household members is needed. This thesis may help other families in deciding whether to take care of a senior family member at home or whether to use any of the social services provided. A secondary benefit of this Bachelor's thesis consisted in promoting in the availability of information on social services for the elderly. The thesis could also be beneficial to students of social sciences.

Štegmannová, Ingrid ; Havrdová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Holmerová, Iva (referee) ; Janečková, Hana (referee)
1 Name of paper / Name of work The implementation of social services quality standards in residential facilities for elderly people - Ethical aspects Abstract The changes in the approach to the clients and adjustments of the run of the facility to their needs are one of the biggest long-term challenges for the service providers. The basis for the correct setting of all the parameters of service (process, personnel and operating) are standards in the quality of social services which involve certain principles and ethical values altogether. One of the essential tools in the changes in approach to clients is the principle of individualization of care, which can be achieved by setting the services to each client individually so that the service provided reflects their real need as much as possible. This dissertation focuses on the individualization of care as a significant indicator in the changes of approach to clients. We tried to figure how the individualization of care reflects in the attitudes of organizations to implement quality standards and how it affects the worker's personality and chosen organizational aspects. An interim goal of this paper was also to identify the ethical aspects which can accompany the introduction of quality standards into practice. We have chosen a method of quantitative...
