Advocacy activities of parents of children with developmental disabilities under state socialism: Example of Inclusion Czech Republic (SPMP ČR)
Trusina, Tadeáš ; Kolářová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Synek, Michal (referee)
The diploma thesis is about the organisation Sdružení pro pomoc mentálně postiženým. Using the example of this enterprise, which was founded in the late 1960s from below and without political cover, the thesis tries to show the possibilities that parents of mentally handicapped children had at that time. From the beginning of its existence, this parent-based advocacy platform sought to highlight the paradoxical unsystematic nature of the domestic institutionalised system of care for the mentally disabled. Parents were bothered by the lack of choice, as there were only year-round institutions, restrictions on visits, and above all the impossibility of co-determining the fate of their mentally handicapped children. From the beginning, the Association tried to act as a partner of professionals and social welfare institutions as well as political representatives, both at the national and local level. At the same time, however, they had a clear and comprehensive programme, which they defined even before its official establishment. The issue is viewed through the concept of the "field of intellectual disability," an imaginary sociopolitical arena into which the Association entered as a new actor. Through the analysis of historical sources, the thesis focuses on the first 8 issues of the newsletter...

Satisfaction with the Services Provided in Nursing Homes
BOUČKOVÁ, Lucie
The bachelor thesis focuses on satisfaction with services provided in homes for the elderly in the Příbram district. The aim of the bachelor thesis was to find out how satisfied users are with the services provided in homes for the elderly in the Příbram district. The bachelor thesis is divided into theoretical and practical parts. The theoretical part describes the concepts related to the title of this bachelor thesis - old age, ageing and the associated ageism, aspects of ageing or ageing population, senior and communication with him/her, needs of seniors or the definition of satisfaction. Last but not least, the topics of social care for the elderly, the social worker, social services for the elderly and finally I have described the actual service of the home for the elderly. In the practical part, I set one main research question, which was "How satisfied are the users of the retirement home with the services provided?", and to this six sub-questions were set. For data collection, qualitative research and interview method, semi-structured interview technique was chosen. The size of the research population was not precisely determined in advance, the questioning was conducted to theoretical saturation - only two criteria were given, namely that they must be users of one of the homes for the elderly in the district of Příbram and they must be able to communicate and understand the questions. The informants with whom the research was conducted were 16 in total. The aim of the Bachelor's thesis was fulfilled and it was found that all users of homes for the elderly in Příbram district are satisfied with the services provided. The results of the bachelor thesis can serve as feedback for the homes for the elderly where the research was carried out and as a stimulus for possible improvement of services in order to contribute to the increase of user satisfaction. Furthermore, it can help those interested in this residential service in their decision making process.

Continuity of Aging
Ach-Hübner, Klarisa ; Valouch, Štěpán (referee) ; Hora, Jan (advisor)
The thesis deals with alternative solutions to the current form of health and social care for the elderly. It addresses the problem of over-specialisation of care, which results in the deteriorating condition of the client requiring more frequent changes of care settings. The thesis builds on a pre-diploma project that explored the differences between different types of care. Where meaningful, it proposes to combine the different types of care into a coherent whole - a stable home. This offers continuity of care, stability of relationships between clients and also to staff, and constancy of environment. The stable home is presented in the form of a more generally applicable typology and then tested on a specific design for a home on náměstí Míru in Brno.

Readiness seats replacement and emergency accommodation for the needs of the targeted population groups
HLÁVKA, Milan
The main purpose of providing social services is to create standard living conditions for meeting the basic needs of people who need this form of support, whether they are disabled or mentally ill. This bachelor thesis focuses on the preparedness of places of alternative and emergency accommodation for the needs of specific groups of the population. Selected groups of the population are people with disabilities, the chronically or mentally ill or people with reduced self-sufficiency. The bachelor thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part, I deal mainly with the explanation of the main concepts and terms necessary to clarify the research question. The main issue addressed in this section is evacuation and its division, especially object evacuation, because evacuation is an important part in dealing with emergencies that preceded emergency accommodation. A large part of the theoretical work is referred to Act No. 108/2006 Coll., on social services. Furthermore, in this section I dealt in detail with the types of social services and facilities in which social services are provided. I defined these issues for me, i.e. for specific groups of the population, and I described these facilities in detail. In the last part of the theoretical part, I dealt in detail with the definition of specific population groups for which I conducted my research. In the practical part, I deal with the research question, and that is how the Domov Ždírec is prepared for the emergencies. During the research, I asked both the responsible head of the facility in Ždírec and the head of the Department of Civil Protection and Crisis Management of the Fire and Rescue Service of the Vysočina Region to find out which contractually bound facilities and entities Domov Ždírec cooperates in emergency accommodation. I continued to analyze the objects used for the primary solution of emergency accommodation according to the Combat Rules of the Fire Protection Units to determine whether they meet all its criteria and, if necessary, to suggest another possible alternative. According to my research, I evaluated that the existing object destined for this purpose is the most suitable of the objects that appeared to be possible variants. Both in terms of combat regulations and practicality as such.

This BA thesis responds to the changes in the society-wide climate caused by population ageing. This BA thesis focuses on linking of family care and social care in accordance with the Social Services Act No. 108/2006 Coll. These are examined in the context of a particular field social service providing personal assistance. The aim of this thesis is to establish what options and limits exist in terms of care for the personal assistance client who is concurrently attended toby a family member or members. The thesis emphasizes several fundamental topics. It focuses predominantly on the importance of family care and personal assistance services, relations between generations, and the role of the elderly and their family in providing care. For the empirical part of the BA thesis a strategy of qualitative research was chosen, using methods of participant observation and focus groups. Obtained data were divided into four areas on the basis of the examined phenomenon, and these were analysed into research results. The focus group consists of twelve personal assistants of the organisation who were selected by exhaustive selection method. The subsequent analysis of obtained data assessed what situations of the combined form of care most often lead to conflicts and difficulties. These include mainly miscommunication among the client, personal assistant and family, conflicts of interests, family disputes, domination, necessity to reduce the load on the family, and obtaining information on care. In conclusion, the results of both theoretical and practical part demonstrated that the essence of the combined care can be fully accomplished only under the condition of effective communication and cooperation of all parties involved - personal assistant, client, and family.

Problematics of transferring the patient onto home artificial pulmonary ventilation
HRBKOVÁ, Lenka
Home artificial lung ventilation (DUPV) is very current topic these days. It provides great hope for the possible return of a patient permanently dependent on artificial lung ventilation back to the home environment. Due to injuries or the development of the disease, some patients are permanently dependent on the support of artificial lung ventilation (UPV). Staying at home with the support of DUPV brings many benefits for these patients. The theoretical part of the diploma thesis is divided into six parts. The first part is devoted to a historical view of the development of artificial lung ventilation. The second part describes the respiratory system. The third part is devoted to artificial lung ventilation, where in the subchapters the indications for connection to UPV, physiological goals, clinical goals and also the subsequent intensive care are analyzed in more detail. The third part comprehensively describes DUPV. The subchapters are devoted to indications for connecting the patient to DUPV, there are described organizations dealing with DUPV. It describes the application for the implementation of DUPV, preparation before the patient goes home, provided nursing care and equipment and medical supplies necessary for implementation. The fourth part focuses on an overview of social benefits and the fifth part on the implementation. Two goals were set for the diploma thesis: 1. To find out, with what problems, including artificial nursing care, do patients face with artificial lung ventilation. 2. Identify what problems, including nursing care, patients experience with home artificial lung ventilation. To meet the objectives, three research questions were created: 1. What problems, including nursing care, occur to patients dependent on artificial lung ventilation in the Follow-up Intensive Care unit? 2. What problems, including nursing care, occur to patients dependent on home artificial lung ventilation? 3. What are the changes in the quality of life and nursing care of patients dependent on ventilator in the hospital and patients dependent on ventilator at home? The empirical part of the diploma thesis is processed in the form of a qualitative research survey. The method of semi-structured interview with NIP general nurses of an unnamed district hospital, caregivers and patients at DUPV was chosen. The method of self-observation and examination of decurses was also used. The interviews were conducted on the basis of pre-arranged questions with four nurses, three caregivers and three patients. The "pencil and paper" method and the open coding method were used to analyze the interviews. For grater clarity, the categories and subcategories were visualized in graphic diagrams. They were also used to compile three case studies. The results of the research survey show that general nurses deal with nursing care, respiratory care and also listen appropriately to the needs of patients. The most common problem that was mentioned was the implementation of personal hygiene, due to the mental and physical dufficulty for patients. Furthermore, problems with defecation, immobility and problems with gestures and communication. An unpleasant problem was also the irritation of the airways during suction. Patients 'and carers' responses show that the most common problem is dependence on the carer for personal hygiene and excretion. Also problems with falling asleep. Social isolation and deteriorated possibility of communication are also problems. A change in the quality of life and nursing care of UPV-dependent and DUPV-dependent patients at home was also found. The answer to this question is that a hospital stay is physically and mentally demanding. It has been said that being at home is real luck. The opportunity to be with family and be able to do everything by yourself. I believe that the work could serve to improve the awareness of family members of patients at DUPV. The work could be used to collaborate in a GAIA grant project.
