Counseling in the Context of Health and Social Care
PALOCHOVÁ, Markéta
The aim of the bachelor 's thesis was to find out how social counseling is provided in the context of health and social care in medical facilities. The theoretical part of the thesis introduced the basic characteristics of social counseling. In the practical part, research questions were set. To achieve the set goal of the bachelor's thesis, a qualitative research strategy was chosen using the method of questioning and the technique of semi-structured interview. The research group consisted of health and social workers who worked in hospitals in the South Bohemian Region at the time of the research. The semi-structured interviews were recorded in audio form with the consent of the informants and subsequently transcribed. Data analysis was performed by open coding method. The bachelor thesis deals with individual aspects of providing social counseling and introduces the actual state of implementation of social counseling in hospitals from the perspective of health and social workers. The research showed that health and social workers in hospitals provide social counseling mainly to hospitalized clients and their family members, whom they help to solve the current social situation. Social counseling is mainly focused on providing post-hospitalization care. It usually takes place at the patient's bedside or in the office of the health and social workers. The research revealed problems with insufficiently secured privacy in the provision of social counseling to bedridden people, the need to educate the public in the field of social services and also draws attention to the appropriateness of increasing the safety of health and social workers. It will be possible to use the bachelor's thesis as a source of information on the method of providing social counseling in health care facilities in the South Bohemian Region. It will also serve as feedback for individual medical facilities in which the research was conducted.

The main objective was to determine how effectively child protection services workers use selected social work methods, techniques, approaches and counselling in the process of child protection. Quantitative strategy was used to work on this objective in a form of questioning method. The data collection part was realized by a questionnaire of my own construction. In this total selection method of social protection service offices in the Czech Republic was used (234 child protection service offices). Social workers working as a head of the department were asked first to fill in the questionnaire and to distribute it subsequently to their co-workers (1841 potential respondents). Of this number of reached child protection services workers 235 filled in the questionaire. The data from quantitative research were further elaborated in the SPSS programme version 24 and graphically adjusted in the Microsoft Excel. First of all there were used Shapiro-Wilk Test and Komlmogorov-Smirnov Test accompanied by Lilliefors Test to identify normal data distribution. Afterwards nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis Test a Mann-Whitney U Test were used. The minimal level of significance for all of these test was p<0,05. Value added of this thesis is open question answers analysis. These qualitative data were further elaborated in the Atlas.ti programme version 8. The principal outcomes of this thesis are statistical tests results. Statistical significance level for the relationship between practice length and satisfaction with practising the proffesion was above the minimal level of significance (p<0,05). Therefore this hypothesis was rejected. Second hypothesis was divided into smaller parts according to selected social work methods, techniques, approaches and counselling in the process of child protection. Statistical significance level between education level of the child protection services workers and effectivity of goal oriented social work was below the minimal level of significance (p = 0,034). Therefore this hypothesis was confirmed. Practical effect of this thesis can be seen in finding that there exists a necessity of number of clients per one child protection worker evaluation. Furthermore selected social work methods, techniques, approaches and counselling effectivity analysis can be used as a tool to point out a need for additional training of child protection services workers.

The theme of my thesis is Assistance in financial management and use of financial counselling services at the asylum houses for mothers with children. The aim of this study is to determine whether it is possible to help mothers at asylum houses with financial management. Financial literacy and the skill to manage their money of these users is very low and it is later on transmitted to their children. Social workers at asylum houses try to help and to encourage their clients in various areas of their lives. Money is not the area every client allows you to intervene in. In my work I consider the views of particular participants on issues of financial management and through using various tools to cooperate with users to improve their financial management skills and at the end of my work I review how the cooperation worked out and succeeded.
Social work in debt issues
KAROCHOVÁ, Michaela
The topic of this thesis is social work in the field of debt issues. Many Czech citizens nowadays have one or more loans that are unable to repay over time and are at risk of confiscation. Prevention and financial literacy are important, as well as social work with people in a debt trap. This thesis deals first with the basic concepts of the topic (debt, definition of the debtor), then debt recovery, social work and social counselling in the area of debt issues, i.e. work with indebted people. In the practical part, we will focus on mapping the views of social workers and other professionals working in the area of indebtedness of the Czech population. A qualitative research was used and was realized by semi-structured interview. Three research questions were set, for which the topics and sub-questions were set for greater clarity. The specific interview was conducted using instructions. The research group consisted of five workers focused on working with people in a debt trap. They were selected from specific institutions in the South Bohemian Region. Research shows that communication partners use an individual approach to their clients and offer specific assistance accordingly. First, they must concretize their problem with them and find out detailed information and all necessary documents. Then they can set goals with clients and start to fulfill them gradually during ongoing consultations. The number of consultations with clients is compiled by the staff according to the need and according to the specific objective. Someone has only one consultation, someone needs 30. Motivation plays a big part of the whole process with the client. Most clients are motivated through their family, friends and loved ones. That's what the workers are trying to do. It is then only the client's desire to improve his/her future. Several factors influence the client's overall situation and its solution to the future. As already mentioned above, the family has both a positive and negative impact on the client. Psychological and financial help from families can be a positive influence. The debtor can be negatively influenced by the fact that he/she grew up in debt all his/her life and he/she finds it normal to indebt at the age of majority. Such indebtedness is also related to society, where the client can be influenced by the surroundings, with which he/she will try to compare and want to "cope" with others. It will cost more money than receive and thus trigger a debt trap. This, of course, can have an impact on employment and future life. The main problem affecting the debtor is probably a lack of awareness in schools where children would need to be preventively taught about debt traps and the consequence of non-payment of obligations in adulthood. Certainly, parents can also prevent this situation, for example, from school years they will give children pocket money and thus teach them how to handle and save money. The bachelor thesis can benefit social workers from organizations working with indebted people. It may also be suitable for schools and the public. To raise awareness that debt is an increasing problem for society.
