The following research questions were chosen for mapping: What are the most common nursing diagnoses of clients in the selected nursing homes?

The methods used For gaining information, qualitative research by the interviewing method using non-standardized in-depth interviews was used. The research was conducted in February 2014 in the G - center in Tábor, a home for the elderly. Interviews were recorded in a notebook and then transcribed. When processing the results, encoding methods for searching for the most common phrases were used, on the basis of which categories and their subcategories were created, summarized in diagrams. The research sample The research sample consisted of 10 nurses from the home for the elderly in the range of 43-57 years, employed as nurses and ward sisters. The interviews were preceded by familiarizing the nurses with the topic of thesis and research purposes, and written consent of the Director of the facility. Results After analyzing the data from the processed interviews, 8 categories were created: The nursing process, using the nursing process, the nursing process in practice, the phases of the nursing process, nursing diagnoses, interventions, documentation of nursing care and care provided. Subcategories were assigned to the individual categories, in which phrases are encoded, and everything is shown in clear diagrams. The interviews revealed that the nurses are aware of the method of the nursing process, which was most often characterized as meeting the needs of the client. This method is used in everyday practice. The evaluation was based on the positives and negatives of this method for both nurses and clients. Conclusion The aim of modern nursing is the high quality of the care provided and the client's active participation in it. It is expressed in the final phase by the satisfaction of their needs with respect to the individual's quality of life, leading to maintaining health and alleviating physical and mental pain.
