Social services for people with HIV/AIDS
LINHARTOVÁ, Barbora
Worldwide statistics show an increasing number of people infected with HIV. Unfortunately, number of people with HIV is also increasing in the Czech Republic (CR). That's why I was in my thesis entitled Social services for persons with HIV / AIDS deeply devoted to care, which is in the Czech Republic provided to persons affected by this insidious disease. I focused on social services, which device provides them, how users are satisfied and whether they have constant contact with the family. The bachelor thesis is divided in two parts, namely the theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is thematically divided into nine sub-chapters, which are further divided into sections. The first subsection deals with the current situation, therefore the definition of HIV / AIDS, the second chapter explains the entire history of HIV and in the third chapter I write about the transmission of HIV. In this section there are described different ways of transmission of the virus. In this part I try to describe to the reader what that HIV / AIDS is. In the fourth and fifth subchapter is referred clinical picture of the disease, how the disease manifests itself, which are the stages of the disease and especially epidemiology, when to readers are approximated data and statistics from the Czech Republic and also from abroad. In the following three sub-sections, which are: treatment, testing and prevention, is briefly described treating HIV / AIDS, what are the methods of testing and how you can defend against HIV. The final ninth chapter is devoted to the principal topic of my thesis, and that?s social services (pursuant to Act 108/2006 Sb.) that are provided to people with HIV / AIDS, where are they provided, how are they financed, etc. Last but not least is mentioned where can a person who feels threatened by the virus, reverse. The practical part of this work was conducted through qualitative research, secondary data analysis and content analysis data. The first objective was to monitor the overall range of social services in the Czech Republic. The second goal was also monitoring, but in this case it was monitoring the satisfaction of users of social services DS with services provided by that social center. Since DS is the only facility providing the service in the Czech Republic, the research was conducted exclusively in this device. The third aim of my thesis was to compare data and statistics HIV / AIDS in the Czech Republic and other European countries. For comparison, I chose autonomous Switzerland, which seemed the most appropriate for comparison. For the purposes of research, I have identified three research questions: What is the incidence and prevalence of HIV / AIDS in the Czech Republic 31 12th 2012? What is the situation of HIV / AIDS in Switzerland compared to the Czech Republic? Is satisfaction of respondents with social services sufficient or D9+-S users have concerns about social services? Even in 2011 didn?t the Czech Republic belong among risk countries with a high incidence and prevalence. In the past year (2012) increased prevalence and incidence and the Czech Republic got on the list of countries at risk. It is paradoxical that while in the Czech Republic, is only one device for people with HIV / AIDS, which provides social services and the number of infected increases every year, there is no need to expand the provision of social services. DS coverers enough the needs of people who need this service and is always trying to find the best and most optimal solution for both sides. The work could help to raise the profile of this serious health, economic and social problem and at the same time could serve as study material not only for students but also for the general public. Furthermore, it could be extended to the framework of the thesis.
