BOUCHAL, Jan
The first part of this bachelor thesis deals with a brief history charitable activities of two churches that are in our country significantly active in helping the seniors. The most important church provider of social services for the elderly is the Roman Catholic Church; the second one is the Evangelical Church.The chapter entitled "Characteristics of the approach in church homes for the elderly" provides a basic description of each approach in the surveyed areas of care. Within the Church's approach the emphasis has been placed on the care for the spiritual needs of the clients. The practical part compares the selected approach areas in four church homes for seniors, all founded by the Charity Czech republic and Diaconate of the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren.The research is divided into two parts. The first one describes the nature of the services provided by selected church homes for the elderly in areas of social work, charity work and as a part of it also the care for the spiritual needs of seniors, activation programs and the availability of these devices in terms of regional, financial and capacity features.The second part illustrates various forms of the religious pluralism of the direct care workers. Its aim is to determine the influence of this religiosity on their perception of the importance of the care for the spiritual needs of their clients and to find out whether the employees are themselves involved in the care of the mentioned needs.
