Art therapy in foster family: Art therapy as a tool of social worker when working with foster family
ADÁŠKOVÁ, Gabriela
This bachelor's thesis introduces the possibilities of incorporating art therapy techniques and topics into case work. The author presents some specifics of foster care and presents insight into guidance of foster families. The thesis briefly discusses the history and present of foster care, mentions the issue of child and family adaptation and focuses, among other things, on the early trauma and psychosocial deprivation of the foster child and the reflection of trauma and psychological hardship in the child's artistic creation. The author used art therapy as a tool of the case worker to support communication in the foster family and to build a positive identity of the adopted child. In the practical part, the author presents concrete examples of incorporating art therapy into case work with the foster family, and above all with a foster child - innovative work with the so-called Book of Life (Kniha zivota in czech). The thesis investigates, among other things, whether early trauma and psychosocial deprivation are reflected in the development of adopted children and whether the mitigation of trauma due to the influence of the family environment is evident. The thesis also outlines the issue of biological children in a foster care and looks for distinctiveness in their artistic expression.

The Experiences of Clients with Field Hospice Care
SVĚTLÍKOVÁ, Eliška
In this bachelor thesis I focus on the role of the social worker in field hospice care. In the theoretical part I deal with historical knowledge, description of the hospice care and with palliative care including multidisciplinary team. I deal with the characteristics of a social worker, his personal assumptions and competencies. I mention the supervision and the burnout syndrome which cannot be omited in this area. I also describe the form of the social work including the hospice care. This includes admission to service, accompaniment and a follow-up care for the survivors. In the empirical part of my bachelor thesis I deal with setting the gole and three research questions. The aim is to find out what role the social worker has in field hospice care. I used a quality research strategy for my thesis. The research was conducted in the sommer months of 2020 in six field hospices in the South Bohemian region. I used the technique of the semi-structured interview to map and collect the necessary information. I chose the open coding method to evaluate the data. As a result I got the conclusion that the addressed social workers in the field hospice care hold many functions. They are in charge of admissions agenda including examination in the patient´s natural enviroment. They support the caring family and the sick client, provide basic, professional and psychosocial counselling. They also focus on informing the users of the service. A social worker holds following functions: administrative worker, mediator, supporter, controller, educator.

Christian Aspects of Palliative Care
Kosourová, Noemi ; Ovečka, Libor (advisor) ; Štica, Petr (referee)
In my work I deal with the issue of palliative care, which includes variables such as illness, pain, suffering and dying. The first part is focused on these facts, which the terminally ill meet in several variations over time, they consider the issues that affect the essence of their lives and are confronted with the reality. I tried to enlarge the general view around the patient and of his problems with the Christian view , ie the possibility to browse the desperate hope that exceeds life and death. For Christians this hope means Jesus Christ .For the patient to receive this hope there is the Christian Church. The second part of this work deals with specific help, such as companionship, which is the work of chaplains and other Christians, whether in volunteer work, or experts in any of the religious establishments. In conclusion, I try to approach the issue of euthanasia, which just highlights the need for human and compassionate palliative care.

Turtáková, Petra ; Baštecká, Bohumila (advisor) ; Klvačová, Petra (referee) ; Zárasová, Zuzana (referee)
This thesis is a qualitative probe into the story of a temporary foster mother. The thesis captures, analyses and classifies this story into systemic context. It does so with an emphasis on the temporary foster mother's personal experience and also with using personal experience of other participants involved in this particular case - including mine. This thesis is largely a reflection of my own role in this story, it is looking at it from different perspectives that evolve over time. The thesis is grounded in theoretical sources, especially methodologies of temporary foster care and methodological recommendations. Theoretical sources are critically viewed and connected to personal experience. The resulting storytelling, which provides an insight into the wider context of temporary foster care in the Czech Republic, was based on this procedure. Capturing systemic context is used in this thesis to create suggestions for possible systemic improvements.
