KRÁLOVÁ, Michaela
Abstract The title of the Bachelor´s thesis is "The nurse and her work in the prison service of the Czech Republic. The nurse´s work always starts from the patient´s needs and shall provide the patient with the feeling of surety. The nurse´s work is focused not only on the nursing care but also on the support of the health and healthy living standard. It is a set of measures and particular activities which the nurse carries out, is qualified to carry them out and is responsible for them. The nursing care depends entirely upon the patient's condition and the surroundings where the patient is found. It is beneficial for the nurse working in the prison service to have experience in more nursing specialisations as her work is large-scale and the nursing care is not just focused on one body organ and its associated complications. The main objective was to map out the specifics of the work of the nurse working in the prison service of the Czech Republic whether within outpatient or inpatient wards. We were interested in what had motivated the nurses to work in the prison service of the Czech Republic, what her duties were and how the nursing care was carried out in the prison service of the Czech Republic. The research was done using qualitative research methods. The selected research technique was a semi-structured interview, which was developed based on valid standards and legislation and according to specialized literature related to the problems of the prison service of the Czech Republic. The results of the interviews were analysed by means of casuistries which then became the base for categorised charts and graphs. The research sample composed of six respondents who work as a general nurse in the prison service of the Czech Republic. By means of the research, we found out that the interviewed nurses work in compliance with valid standards and legislation. The nursing care is carried out in the form of a nursing process and the work of the interviewed nurses working in the prison service of the Czech Republic has its own specifics and differs especially in the approach to the prisoner/patient and in the communication with him/her. The most frequent specific facts of the work of the interviewed nurses were accompanying the prison service officers whether accompanying the respondents or a prisoner/patient, day-and-night locking, more administrative work. The motivation of the nurses to work in the prison service appeared to be an interesting salary, new experience and curiosity. The job description of the interviewed nurses in the prison service of the Czech Republic is defined by a given specialisation of a particular facility and internal rules of the facility where the interviewed nurses work. The thesis concluded that the interviewed nurses working in the prison service of the Czech Republic have got a different and specific job which is mainly influenced by the structure of the patients and the surroundings where the patients are located. It is a mentally-demanding job. In practice the results of the research could be used at the specialised conference for non-medical professions in healthcare or published in a specialised journal of health care.

PŘIBYLOVÁ, Eliška
Drug addiction presents a problem that negatively influences the whole society. If the drug addicted person is imprisoned, it is important to solve this situation. There are various treatment programs that are performed in the drugless zones or specialized wards. Providing of substitution treatments and harm reduction programs is at the beginning in Czech prisons. The non-governmental organizations associated with Association of non-governmental organization in department of Drug service in prisons provide support and help too. Prison service of The Czech Republic makes efforts to eliminate drug abuse through anti-drug measures like drug monitoring.

Problems of drug addicts in the prison of Vinarice
NOVÁK, Martin
In recent years drugs have greatly influenced criminal activity, when drug addicted criminals after their sentence find themselves in prison. Programs of treatment of these persons are implemented in prison, which are directed at their correction, prevention of recurrence and re-integration into normal society. The main objective of this thesis is to map the specific services provided to drug addicted persons in prison in Vinařice. With regard to the set goal, I chose a qualitative research method when the technique of semi-structured interviews was used to collect the data. Respondents who participated in research were situated in the drug-free zone department of Prison in Vinařice. The research has shown that services provided to drug addicted persons are accepted positively by the respondents, they have their justification and they lead to successful re-socialization. The following hypotheses originated from the results of my paper: H 1: Illegal drugs are more obtainable in the environment of ordinary prison sentence, compared to separate drug-free zone. H 2: The specific services provided to drug addicts in the prison environment are accepted positively by the prisoners. H 3: Majority of convicted in the drug-free zone department committed crimes under influence of drugs, or to obtain funds for drugs. But the question remains, how people with drug addiction, namely the respondents who participated in research, will behave in society after their release from prison, when they have served their sentences. The stated facts could be used as a possible topic for further research.

PROCHÁZKOVÁ, Andrea
The title of the thesis is Social Integration of People Released from the Prison. The theoretical part describes current situation concerning living conditions of the people sentenced to the prison, that are determined by legal standards in Czech Republic and by internal regulations of each jail house. These conditions form the personality of convicts and influence their social situation, relationships, and connections. The convicts need after the release to be helped with their integration into the society the most and also to be helped with handling their social situation to avoid recidivism. The aim of the diploma work is to describe problems of individuals released from the prison and the process of resocialization in detail. The thesis also provides the survey of possibilities for helping these people, thus service provided for people with inability to adapt to a society and types of facilities dealing with this target group. The practical part was conceived as the qualitative research in form of case studies using semi-structured interviews with the individuals released from the prison. I asked eight clients 28 questions in following categories: social situation of clients before the sentence, their life while imprisoned, their return to freedom and cooperation of the clients with institutions. There was also performed subsidiary quantitative research within the diploma work. I inquired social workers supervising released adults two questions, using e-mail correspondence. The questions were concerning the most frequent problems they had to deal with, after a client was released from the prison, and also services in Czech Republic{\crq}s system that workers missed in helping the target group. I outlined the comparison of the results coming out of my investigation with the current situation in related area, and also with other investigations at the end of my thesis. I recommend for improving the situation of the released individuals from prison to establish institutions with complete range of assistance, multi focused team, and the support in employing the people with criminal records as the high quality instrument of their social integration.

The effects of imprisonment on behavior of convicted offenders
PROCHÁZKOVÁ, Andrea
Abstract The title of my thesis is {\clqq}The effects of imprisonment on behaviour of convicted offenders``. In my opinion this is a challenging issue, not spoken about enough in the public. Since 1989 the pathological, anti-social and deviant behaviour in our fellow citizens has enhanced. It is one of phenomena of the democratization of our country. The number of offenders convicted to imprisonment has been increasing. My thesis is composed of two main sections. The objective of the theoretical section is to give information on life conditions in prisons, the rights and duties of prisoners which are both statutory and stated by the internal regulation of the particular prison. First of all I mention effects of imprisonment on a person serving a sentence{--} his/her social status, family relations, mental balance and possible recidivism. The important component forming the prisoners´ attitudes are ideas and approach of social workers and psychologists who have long-time experience in treating prisoners. Their view of life conditions, prisoners´s readiness for the return into society and resocialization are very interesting. In the practical section of my thesis I demonstrate the effects of imprisonment. I used the questionnaire method. Questionnaires were handed out to prisoners, they themselves answered a series of questions in which they expressed their own opinions and described how imprisonment influenced their lives. The research shows that consequences are fatal in many cases. In my opinion alterations in the prison system are necessary. Improved life conditions and an effective social system would contribute to the effectiveness of imprisonment.

The subject in articulo mortis and face to face with nature
Hrbata, Zdeněk
The article first discusses the positive (e.g. William Wordsworth, Novalis, Victor Hugo) and the negative (Alfred de Vigny, Giacomo Leopardi) conceptions of nature in the Romantic epoch, as well as pointing out their principal objects: the being of the universe and the appearance of landscape. With regard to this background, it compares situations and reflections of the prisoner or the convict condemned to death in the works of George Gordon Byron (The Prisoner of Chillon, 1816), Victor Hugo (Le Dernier Jour d'un Condamné, 1829, Quatre vingt-treize, 1874) and Karel Hynek Mácha (Máj, 1836). It analyses the tragic separation between final existence and renewable nature, indifferent to human destiny.
