Nývltová, Markéta ; Svobodová, Tereza (advisor) ; Krivošíková, Mária (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focused on ergotherapeutic intervention in children with mental retardation. The thesis consists of two parts, theoretical and practical. The teoretical part describes the different types of mental disability, the ergotherapy and the relation between ergotherapy and childern with mental disability. In theoretical part there are ergotherapeutic methods described for specific phases of mental retardation, i.e. mental illness, moderate mental retardation, severe mental retardation and deep mental retardation. Of all the ergotherapeutic methods of the procedures, the method of leisure time activities - reconditioning stay - is dealt with in the most detailed way. The practical section of the bachelor thesis is focused on leisure time - reconditioning stay. In this part, I have used semi- structured interviewing methods to learn about the awareness of the field of ergotherapy in the non-profit sector. The interviews were attended by workers who have participated in the operation of reconditioning stays. Next, I have observed in detail the course of two reconditioning stays. Consequently, in my bachelor thesis, there is a comparison of such reconditioning stays (hereinafter referred to as "RP") and ergotherapeutic programmes. The main contribution of this thesis is that it...

The role of the occupational therapist for children with mental disability aged from five to eighteen. Subtitle: Using reconditioning stay
Nývltová, Markéta ; Svobodová, Tereza (advisor) ; Rodová, Zuzana (referee)
The bachelor's work is particularly concerned with occupational therapy intervention in children with mental disabilities. The work has two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical section describes the types of mental disability and occupational therapy (the relationship between occupational therapy and children with mental disabilities). The concept of reconditioning is also discussed in this section. The following is a description of occupational therapy methods, techniques and approaches that are suitable for designing an occupational therapy reconditioning program. In the practical section there is a description of the two reconditioning stays completed, followed by a comparison. Unstructured conversations are used here, thereby establishing awareness of the field of occupational therapy in the non-profit sector. The talks were attended by workers involved in the running of reconditioning stays. In addition, two reconditioning stays are monitored with detailed observation. Based on a comparison of these reconditioning stays, an occupational therapy reconditioning programme is established with children with mental disabilities aged between five and eighteen. The main benefit of the work is to create an occupational therapy programme that has different applications. Occupational...
