Community social work and its use in working with a Roma target group
KAIPROVÁ, Eliška
The topic of my bachelor thesis is community social work and its use in working with the Roma target group. The aim of my thesis is to find out how social workers use community work. I have divided my thesis into a theoretical part and a research part. In the first part, the research part, I tried to describe and explain the basic concepts related to the topic in a professional way, and in the second part, which was written inn the spirito f qualitative research, I prepared questions for a semi-strustured interview, through which I wanted to fulfil the aim of my thesis and answer the main research question: How specifically do social workers use community social work with the target Roma group? The methodology for the bachelor thesis was qualitative data collection, where I used the interview methodand the semi-structured interview technique. I selected the community social workers using the quota selection method and the chosen quotas are as follows: the interviewee has been working in direct care with the client for at least half a year and is willing to cooperate in the research. The results of the research show that social workers emphasize individuality and treat each client as unique and try to support them. It also emerged that they do not differentiate them in any way from the majority society and approach them with humility, without prejudice and stereotypes. This work can serve as a better insight into community work with the Roma group.

The first chapters of this thesis are dedicated to community care and utilization of community nursing care, including the history and development of community care in the Czech Republic as well as outside its territory. The thesis further provides a summary of institutions, health and social services within community care, including the possibility of home care. It also deals with the role of community nurses and their involvement in the process of community planning. Another important part of this thesis is the issue of emergencies where the term "emergency" is defined, and divisions of emergencies and the cooperation of integrated response system are described. The thesis furthermore concentrates on the procedures of the ambulance service during emergencies including emergencies with polytrauma and the subsequent treatment in health-care facilities. One of the goals of this thesis is to describe the role of medics during emergencies and the role they play in caring for patients coming from different communities. Further chapters deal with specific community health care: elderly people, children, people with disabilities, groups of different cultures - ethnic and national minorities. It also deals with the specifics of providing health care from the point of view of religion. The practical part is dedicated to quantitative survey of knowledge of medics in issues of community health care across different levels of education and different ranks. A research question was determined: What is the understanding and professional level of medics in the community care setting during and after an emergency? The respondent data was obtained in the form of a questionnaire and results are shown in diagrams. The questionnaires aimed to find out whether the respondents had ever heard the term "community care" and to find out their theoretical knowledge on this issue. However, the main point was to evaluate how vast is their practical experience.

The Care Community
Nasrollahzadeh Saravi, Yasaman ; Widholmová, Alžběta (referee) ; Muryn, Romea (advisor)
The aging population along with the growing demographic of urban settlements is one of the main challenges cities face, all over the world. As the elderly population is expected to increase significantly in the years to come, cities, which for most parts are designed and structured with the younger and working-age groups in mind, will have to address and adapt to challenges that follow this transition. Care for the elderly is divided into medical and social care domains. While now, most facilities aimed at this age group focus on the medical point of view, the social needs of this demographic are prominently not taken into account. As a result, senior citizens today, struggle with social exclusion and isolation which have been proven to cause serious health impairments. In addition, separating and relocating the elderly to senior facilities is usually not preferred among this age group and their families. Through understanding and analyzing this demographic, its demands, and challenges, this project aimed towards developing an urban strategy by creating different “care typologies” throughout the city of Brno, so that, by implementing these suggested typologies, the city as a whole will provide care for the elderly as a community rather than dis-placing this rising and fragile age-group to institutional care. These typologies were first determined by dividing the city of Brno into three main parts by considering certain parameters as influencing factors. Then, the different space programs were derived and structured through research and in-person interviews with two of the senior facilities in Brno. As a result, three main care typologies were introduced, namely, the care housing, the day care center, and the care community center. Lastly, locations were analyzed and selected for each typology as examples in the typologies’ individual urban regions. The care housing and the day care center typologies were then developed further into detailed architectural design.

Integration health and social services
Slavíková, Martina ; Angelovská, Olga (advisor) ; Dobiášová, Karolína (referee)
In my thesis I deal with the integration of health and social services. I introduced the issue of two/double departmental service management and their financing, there. In addition, I described the various actors involved in the integration of services, mentioned strategic documents and legislation related to the provision of health and social care. In the case study, I mapped the health and social services provided in Louny, through street-level bureaucrats I gained information about the interconnection of services in Louny and about the factors that affect the implementation of integration of services in the town. For successful implementation of integration, it is necessary to specify the users of integrated health and social services, to create a home base for them, to provide a flexible range of services and at the same time to support the informally caring families. The lack of demand for integrated services is linked to other factors such as ignorance of citizens and low participation in caring for close relatives. Street.level bureaucrats in health and social services do not know the integration of services, they do not encounter it in practice, this factor has an impact on the motivation of street-level bureaucrats to make changes in the provision of care. An important factor is also the...

Mental health policy analysis in the Czech Republic in the context of European Union
Pečtová, Kateřina ; Háva, Petr (advisor) ; Karlová, Irena (referee)
Diploma thesis "Mental health policy analysis in the Czech Republic in the context of European Union" deals with the present state of health care of psychiatric patients in the Czech Republic. Main theories for the thesis are quality of life, human rights, health determinants and support of mental health. Analysis of mental health policy shows that health care for psychiatric patients is mainly concetrated in psychiatric institutions. Advanced trends and recommendations described in the political documents issued by the European Union urge to transformation of service framework stressing the importance of health care diferentiation and its move towards community care. At the end, health care framework for the Czech Republic fulfilling such requests and correspondig with the model of balanced care is described. Such a model is based on progressive health care movement from psychiatric institutions towards community care with regard on financial, personal and capacity resources of the state and region. The Czech Republic belongs to the states with average resource capacity thus such steps would lead to balancing institutional and community care and follows the line established by developed countries leading to larger and more diferentiated health care framework.
