Nursing Care at a Standard Covid Unit from the Point of View of the Patient
BLAŽKOVÁ, Kateřina
This Bachelor thesis describes nursing care in a standard covid unit from a patient's perspective. The following research questions have been identified with regard to the thesis: 1. How do nursing care patients in a standard covid unit feel? 2. What needs do patients who have been hospitalized in a standard covid unit describe? 3. What information do patients lack from nurses related to Covid-19 disease during hospitalization in a standard covid unit? In the theoretical part, we deal with Covid-19 disease, the description of nursing care in the standard covid unit, the identification of changes in the needs of patients in this unit and the awareness of patients about Covid-19 disease. The practical part lectures research from covid units from hospitals of the district or county type. For the research part, a qualitative method was selected in the form of semi-structured interviews in which patients after covid-19 disease were interviewed. The data obtained was processed by the open-coding method using the pencil-paper technique. The results are divided into 3 categories. The first category deals with mapping of nursing care from the patient's perspective. It maps the regime at the covid unit, the nursing interventions, as well as the assessment of the stay by the patient. The second category describes meeting patients' needs. It outlines the patient's experience of having to be in isolation and the needs described by patients during hospitalization. The third category maps patients' awareness of the disease and provides a look at the information they lacked in relation to the disease. Based on the information gathered, it is possible to see how nursing care is carried out in patients in covid units, but also where there are gaps and room for improvement. The results can be applied in practice to improve care or serve as a source of information for nursing students.
