Nursing care provided to clients of the Jewish religion in the Czech Republic and Austria
VEJVALKOVÁ, Eva
The main aim of the thesis was to find out the possibilities of providing nursing care to Jewish clients in CZ and Austria, to make a comparison of providing nursing care in both countries and also to find out knowledge of nurses concerning the care of clients with Jewish religion. We put four research questions and this: What are the specifics of nursing care of clients with Jewish religion? What are the differences in the care of clients with Jewish religion between the Czech Republic and Austria? What kind of possibilities of nursing care have in their disposal clients with Jewish religion in the Czech Republic and in Austria? What knowledge have sisters caring for a client with Jewish religion? Qualitative investigation was carried out. It had a form of a personalized non-standardized interview and an analysis of Internet sources. Research sample consisted of 4 nurses from the Czech Republic and Austria. Resource analysis was carried out from the website. Interviews were recorded on a tape recorder and afterwards were overwritten. Interviews with Austrian colleagues were translated in advance. Interviews constitute the basis from which categorization was created, by using the framework of analysis, which was also illustrated by diagrams. The source analysis together with an interview with a nurse from the Austrian institution was illustrated in the diagram too. From the results it is clear that all nurses from the Czech Republic as well as from Austria are aware of the specifics of nursing care of a Jewish client. Differences of the care of clients with Jewish religion between the Czech Republic and Austria are dependent primarily on the knowledge of nurses. Austrian sisters proved that their knowledge is deeper, more accurate and more specific, which is reflected on nursing care. Czech nurses have in comparison with Austrian ones just basic knowledge. This fact can´t cover the nursing care in holistic approach. he results indicate that institutions for clients with Jewish religion are both in the Czech Republic and in Austria. The Austrian one has in comparison to the Czech one a long tradition and many times larger capacity. It should be noted that in the Austrian institution not only clients with Jewish religion are hospitalized. The observance of Jewish traditions and customs is a matter of course in both institutions. Surprisingly, despite the multicultural nursing in the study plan, which the Austrian nurses did not attended, their knowledge was a lot better than of their Czech colleagues. Nowadays a holistic approach is required and without such knowledge it cannot be fulfilled appropriately. This thesis should point out at the necessity of nurses´ education in the multicultural nursing issues.

The Approach of Medical Rescue Service to Treatment of Clients from Different Cultures
TREŠLOVÁ, Zuzana
At the present time a varied ethnic population lives in the Czech Republic and foreigners are found in all medical institutions, from general practitioners to hospitals. This bachelor thesis briefly resumes the theory of multicultural nursing and the special characteristics of treating selected groups of foreigners. The aim of the thesis is both to map out the frequency of departures of the Medical Rescue Service of South Bohemia to patients/clients from different cultures, and to find out how the paramedics from the Medical Rescue Service of South Bohemia approach these patients/clients. The theoretical part contains characterization of rescue service, describes the profession of the paramedic and their competence. In the following part the thesis deals with multicultural health care. At first multicultural health care is described and the terms connected with this subject are explained. Then multicultural communication and its forms are discussed, the special characteristics of health care for foreign patients (in this particular case Romany, Vietnamese and Ukrainian inhabitants) are analysed. Finally the system of health care for foreign patients and the state of health of migrants in the Czech Republic are briefly mentioned. Part two, which is practical, is devoted to research, which used the quantitative method in the form of questionnaires. The findings suggest that the paramedics from the Medical Rescue Service of South Bohemia are well informed about the basic differences in distinct cultures, which means that the first hypothesis was confirmed. According to research paramedics are able to communicate adequately in English or German but at the same time they say that the language barrier is a frequent problem when treating a foreign client. However, this claim never exceded fifty per cent of the results, therefore I can neither confirm nor refute this hypothesis. Paramedics working for the medical rescue service do not need to know multicultural health care in depth. It is important to know at least one world language and, if possible, to have a car equipped with communication cards.

Methods of family planning at Romany woman
ŠULCOVÁ, Iva
In this thesis, I addressed the issues of the Romany population, in particular family planning of Romany women. My thesis is divided into two parts. The first part is theoretical and the other is practical. The first part dealt with the history of the Romany population, Romany customs, rituals, housing, family, children, etc. These phenomena were separately applied to the multicultural nursing model - a Giger-Davidhizar model. Due to globalization and population migration, I emphasized the need to use and apply the model of multicultural nursing as an integral part of nursing care. In the second part of my thesis, I carried out my research through semi-controlled interviews with five randomly selected Romany women aged between 20-40 years. Five objectives and related research questions were defined. All the objectives were met. Research question 1, whether Romany women are aware of family planning methods, was not answered definitely. Research question 2 shows that Romany women use family planning methods. Research question 3 resulted in the finding that Romany women use hormonal contraceptives in family planning. Research question 4 explained that Romany women do not find family planning important. The respondents replied to research question 5 ? what Romany women?s needs in primary care are ? in the sense that they do not have any specific requirements. My bachelor thesis can be used as a resource for midwives who want to learn about the problems of the Romany population and family planning, as well as for working midwives who would apply the knowledge in the field of multicultural nursing his their practice, recommend adequate contraception in primary prevention and educate Romany women on when, how and under what circumstances to start a family. The general public, especially young girls, who begin their sexual life, will find here an overview of all available and used methods of contraception.

Language Barier in the nursing Care from the View of Foreigners
MOTYSOVÁ, Martina
Language barriers in nursing care from the view of foreigners The degree paper was aimed at the problems caused by language barriers in the Czech health care facilities between the nurses and the increasing number of hospitalized foreigners in our country. The rules and principles of multicultural nursing care are defined and the knowledge or perfect mastering of foreign languages by nurses seem to be more often the basic precondition for providing a comprehensive care in the Czech hospitals. The objective of this paper was to ascertain the scope of language barrier between the nurses and patients of different cultures through the eyes of foreigners and to assess the impact of the language barrier on the level and quality of the nursing care services provided by nurses. The survey is a quantitative research based on three anticipated hypotheses. H1 states that nursing care depends on the language and communication skills of both nurses and foreigners. H2 describes language barriers of nurses as considerable, namely in connection with the deficit of knowledge of foreign languages, and H3 mentions possible negative impact of language barriers on the quality level of nursing care. These hypotheses were confirmed. The data for the survey were processed by secondary analysis and the basic technique of the data collection was a questionnaire for the foreigners treated in the Czech health care facilities. The questionnaire contained 30 questions relating mostly to the problems caused by language barriers of nurses and foreigners and using of translator{\crq}s services by foreigners in the Czech hospitals. The survey was carried out in the clinic of reproductive medicine and endocrinology in Plzeň and Karlovy Vary. The survey showed that the degree of language barrier between nurses and foreigners in the Czech Republic was much higher than in other foreign countries and has often a negative impact on the level of nursing care provided. The reason of that was an insufficient language proficiency of nurses and not taking into consideration the specific cultural needs of a patient. Interpreting services provided by Czech hospital to foreigners are virtually nil. The results of this degree paper will be provided to those who are interested in these issues and may contribute to understanding the necessity of the Czech nurses to be able to communicate in foreign language in connection with the improvement of quality of nursing care in our country.
