Differences in comunication with father with different degree dependences on care other persons in Home for seniors in Milevsko
JAROŠOVÁ, Jana
An importance of the communication with seniors is often neglected. I chose this topic for my bachelor thesis to draw an attention to its importance. The communication is one of the most important life necessities. By communicating we become a part of a society. An interpersonal communication is present at each meeting of two or more people. It is impossible to get by it and especially helping professions should have it in mind. It is inconceivable that the care could take place without any communication. Taking care of a user, the nursing staff cannot do with common communication ways they use every day. That is why it is necessary for them to learn how to communicate professionally. By talking with a senior, we can inform him/her about just ongoing activities, but we can also obtain information, encourage and motivate him/her etc. The quality of the provided care does not manifest itself only by using the latest technologies and materials, but also by the ability, how the staff can communicate with users. The ability of the nursing staff to make a contact, to hold a conversation in a qualified way and to gain a confidence is almost a rarity in present hectic times. The communication is an important part of the life for all of us, it accompanies us already from the birth and especially the seniors need to have a possibility to speak with somebody, to tell him about his/her feelings. The bachelor thesis has been focused on the issues of the communication with seniors. The aim of the thesis was to find out whether there are differences in the communication with seniors with various degrees of dependences on another person´s care. The theoretical part defines concepts as a communication and its types ? verbal, nonverbal and paralinguistic, an old age and a senior, seniors´ home and specifics of the communication with the senior. The practical part deals with a research survey. The research sample consisted of the staff and seniors from the Seniors´ Home Milevsko. The data collection technique was an observation and interviews. Everything was carried out with an approval of the organization management. Interviews were conducted independently and with different employees. The observation was carried out secretly at chosen seniors. In the practical part there are recorded important information from the interviews with the staff and the findings from the observation. The most significant answers to the questions are indicated in an authentic wording and highlighted in italics. Results of the research in the bachelor thesis inform about differences in the communication with the seniors. It was found out that it comes to an infantilization of seniors; the used method of the communication is similar to conversations with small children. The staff talks about the senior as about the third person during a care of a badly speaking user, they do not pay a necessary attention to harmonizing of their verbal and nonverbal expressions. It often leads to a stigmatization of the users ? they classify seniors into certain groups. The bachelor thesis can be used for improving the communication between the staff and users of the seniors´ home.

ZAHRÁDKOVÁ, Kamila
The objective of this bachelor thesis is to evaluate the health condition parameters and value ladders of senior citizens participating in the intervention mobility program and to assess the impact of adequate physical activity on their general wellness and value orientation. The opening chapter of the bachelor thesis deals with the general problems of aging and old age, elaborating on the individual concepts and contingencies that invariably accompany these issues. The next part of the thesis details certain relevant facts about homes for the elderly, comparing care for the elderly in the past and today. Furthermore, the first part of the thesis focuses on intervention mobility programs, describing what these programs are about, what is considered adequate physical activity, and what role the retention of mobility plays in the life of the elderly in general. The second part of the bachelor thesis concentrates on processing the concrete data and results acquired in the course of the intervention mobility program organized in a home for the elderly. Upon completing the intervention mobility program, we can say that the program did have positive effects, but not in all of the parameters measured. In other words, while certain health condition parameters and value orientation parameters did reach the desired results, others recorded practically no improvement at al.
