Zíbarová, Tereza ; Nikodemová, Hana (advisor) ; Vlachová, Marie (referee)
Aim: The aim of the bachelor's thesis is to map and evaluate the experience of nurses with volunteers who come to selected inpatient wards at the Motol University Hospital, and to assess whether the experience of nurses with volunteers is rather positive or negative. The work is divided into a theoretical and an empirical part. The theoretical part contains a basic definition of the concepts of volunteering, in healthcare facilities in the Czech Republic and abroad. The empirical part deals with the research investigation itself. Methods: The research was carried out in the form of a non-standardized questionnaire, which contained twenty-three questions. This questionnaire was distributed to selected respondents, specifically to nurses in selected departments of the University Hospital in Motol. Data collection took place from December 2022 until the beginning of March 2023. Results: A total of fifty-seven fully completed questionnaires were obtained from the nurses. In the questionnaire, 82.46 % of the nurses evaluated the involvement of volunteers in care positively, 15.79 % rather agreed with the positive experience. When asked whether nurses evaluate the involvement of volunteers negatively, 87.72 % of respondents answered that they disagree with this statement, 7.02 % rather disagreed, 3.51 %...

Attitudes of therapists from selected inpatient care facilities to spiritual topics and techniques in the treatment of addiction
Zemina, Jiří ; Vacek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Remeš, Prokop (referee)
Spirituality is an interesting phenomenon that is hard to describe, therefore, any person may have different understanding or meaning of it. In addictology, a bio-psycho-socio-spiritual model is used, in which you can talk about the first three dimensions but the fourth is "sometimes" omitted. Many authors urge the need to involve spiritual dimension in addiction treatment, for example by inducing altered states of consciousness. Most often in addictological practice, you encounter spirituality in the therapeutic community in form of many rituals. The aim of this paper is to describe how addictologists approach spirituality from a personal and professional point of view, their experience with specific topics and clients, and finally how they perceive different spiritual techniques and tools in addiction treatment. The theoretical part deals with the definition of spirituality, altered states of consciousness and psychospiritual crisis. In the second half of the theoretical part, spirituality and its place in addictology is dealt with together with a short chapter focusing on psychadelics and their use in addictology. The practical part presents qualitative research where a semi-structured interview was used. The interview was further analyzed and coding methods were used. Then codes were...

Increasing Efficiency of Inpatient Care in the Czech Republic: ERAS Protocol Adherence in Colorectal Surgery
Hrušková, Barbora ; Bryndová, Lucie (advisor) ; Landovská, Petra (referee)
Barbora Hrušková Abstract Standardization of care is necessary to achieve more efficient inpatient care. En- hanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols have proven to accelerate the recov- ery of patients, decrease lengths of stay and reduce complications. However, close adherence to the protocol is necessary to achieve the beneficial outcomes. The pur- pose of this study is to prove that higher adherence to ERAS protocol increases its efficiency by achieving lower expenses and higher productivity due to the decreased patient length of stay. De-identified dataset of patients who underwent colorectal surgery between April 2016 and March 2020 at Motol University Hospital was used for our analysis. Ordinary least squares (OLS) models were created to investigate the effect of adherence to individual items of the protocol as well as the different levels of total adherence on the length of stay. We proved that seven items of ERAS protocol are independent predictors of the length of stay. Moreover, we found an inverse relationship between the ERAS protocol adherence and the length of stay. Finally, after assigning monetary values to our results we could conclude that higher adherence to ERAS protocols provides more efficient inpatient care and contributes to cost savings in the Czech Republic.

Reform of mental healthcare in Czech Republic
Šilhanová, Andrea ; Válková, Monika (advisor) ; Mlejnková, Kristýna (referee)
In the thesis I examine current legislative anchoring of healthcare and social care of mental health. In the second chapter of theoretical part I write about classification of mental illnesses. Third chapter, which is very important from my point of view, describe transformation of healthcare and social care in the foreign countries. Practical part contains pilot survey for the Ministry of Health. The purpose was to find out the satisfaction of the clients with social and health services, which are part of the treatment of mental health. Satisfaction was detected by questionnaires, which patients had available with their ambulant psychiatrist. Those questionnaires were created at round tables by experts, patients and service providers in a hospital. Social care and healthcare do not connect. Experts do not communicate with each other. Tragical finding was that ambulant psychiatrist has in average thirteen minutes for examination of a client. Definitely Czech Republic need Centre for Mental Healthcare for complex care of the patient.

Development of population ageing and its impact on long-term care expenditures in the Czech Republic
Konířová, Kristýna ; Pavloková, Kateřina (advisor) ; Dózsa, Martin (referee)
This paper examines and analyzes development of population ageing in the Czech Republic and its likely future development and impact on long-term care costs. Long-term care is defined in detail and subdivided. Views of the European Union and the Czech Republic on the future development of long-term care are also summarized. Selected categories of expenditures are described and analyzed, including differences in spending on inpatient care and home care. The model, which tests whether and how population aging and other factors (e.g. GDP, number of beds, etc.) affect the long-term care expenses is processed at the end of the thesis.
