The physical handling of the patient with self-sufficiency impairment in home care.
 ZAVADILOVÁ, Leona
The Bachelor thesis deals with the physical handling of a patient with a self-sufficiency disorder in home care. It defines physical handling as part of everyday nursing care. It presents the care of patients with self-sufficiency impairment in rehabilitation treatment using the kinaesthetic concept and handling aids. Unskilled handling carries risks that can negatively influence the physical and psychological well-being of all involved. The aim of the study was to investigate the use of handling aids in home care when physically handling a patient with impaired self-sufficiency. The research questions focused on the handling aids available to home caregivers and the complications of physical handling. The implementation of qualitative research using a semi-structured interview method with eight home care nurses provided information on the handling aids used as well as complications of physical handling in the home care setting. Five categories were created by categorizing the data using the pencil-paper method. Research shows that information for safe handling is provided to the patient's family by the nurse. Caregivers use a positioning mat for care. Very important, but sometimes unavailable, in home care is the reclining bed. Physical handling then becomes risky. Nurses do not use a slide sheet. Two of them do not know the aid at all. Complications of physical handling that occur to nurses and patients include musculoskeletal or skin injuries. The results of the research show the need to popularize the topic of safe physical handling. A leaflet has been produced for agencies involved in physical handling research. Another way to prevent the risk factors of physical handling in home care and to make it safe for the patient and the caregiver are courses and conferences with theoretical and practical content on safe physical handling for professionals and lay people.

Basal stimulation and kinaesthetics and their integration into the the care of seniors with specific problems
 POLICHRONOVOVÁ, Lenka
Summary In my bachelor's thesis I focus on an integration of a stimulatory care into daily activities of seniors with heavy motoric, cognitive or perceptional changes by the means of the concept Basal stimulation and by the means of the concept Kinaesthetic mobilisation. In a theoretical part I describe an old age with manifestations of involution, I marginally mention a neurorehabilitation, nursing in order to point out a penetration of rehabilitation into the care which is directed to therapeutic aim in a nursing way. Subsequently I deal with both concepts, with individual stimulations and with kinaesthetic principles of mobilization. In a practical part there was a qualitative research applied. A data sampling was implemented by the way of a secondary analysis of documents and by a method of observation. An observation was implemented both as involved and neutral one. There was an instrumental method of casuistics applied to describe an integration of concepts into the care. The diversity of sample was the main criterion at choice. There were 4 males and 2 females in the age range 53{--}95 years old in a set. The objective of work no. 1 was to create an integrated image of the possibilities of integration and of utilization of elements from a concept of basal stimulation and kinaesthetic mobilisation in the care of seniors with specific problems. The objective no. 2 was to support a theory that an interconnection of a concept of basal stimulation and kinaesthetics leads to the development of perceptiveness and to improvement of skills and capabilities. The objective no. 3 presupposes that concepts of basal stimulation and kinaesthetics contribute to a support of overall perception and to improvement of the quality of life of seniors with a somatic, sensoric and mental affection. The objective no. 4 was to find out whether the concepts are a suitable communicational and educational form in a fundamental nursing care in order to achieve a higher level of self-service and mobility. All the objectives were achieved in my opinion. An importance of rehabilitation and psychosocial educational care even in old age ensued from an elaboration of a theoretical part. By the way of evaluation of a practical part I came to my personal opinion that a stimulation care has a positive effect even in a developmental stage of an old age. The thesis could become a source of information at introduction of concepts into practice; it could be conducive for family members when taking care of their close relatives or eventually as a basis for the purposes of study of these problems.
