ŠÍDLOVÁ KUNSTOVÁ, Natálie
Bachelor thesis is focused on the issue of capacity in retirement homes in South Bohemian Region. The aim is not only to analyze the current state, but also the possibility of future development of capacity in these facilities. The reason for the necessity of retirement homes and their sufficient capacity for the future is the main prerequisite of constantly lengthening of life expectancy and the corresponding increase of number but also the proportion of seniors in the total population. The theoretical introduction is devoted to define the basic concepts of age and aging. Attention is also focused on individual theories of aging, age and periodicity of old age. Marginally are also mentioned symptoms of age. There is also described the characteristic of retirement homes such as social services, including basic activities. With the regard to the focus of the work, there are presented retirement homes in South Bohemian Region and current and future trends of population development in this region. The analytical part is realized by quantitative research, which was conducted in two directions questioning retirement homes by a questionnaire survey, supplemented by telephone interviews and searching for data from publicly available publications, and by constructing model projections, which point to the possible impact of demographic aging on the current capacity of retirement homes. The sample consisted of 35 retirement homes in South Bohemian Region, the success of the cooperation was about 66 %. The results were clearly tabulated, enhanced with images and conclusions based on information obtained through the survey and model projections, analyzed in detail in the subsequent discussion. It can be assumed that the objective of the present study were met and hypotheses confirmed. The results could be used in the future strategic planning of social services in the South Bohemian Region. The thesis could be an incentive e.g. for mapping the capacities for other residential facilities of the South Bohemian Region.

The Quality of Life by Clients at Senior Houses in Centre of Social Services, České Budějovice
HNILIČKOVÁ, Kateřina
This bachelor thesis deals about the quality of life at the seniors´ age. It describes the Centre of Social Services "Staroměstská" (CSS), where an intervention program was conducted. It shows a division of social services that are provided by CSS. The thesis is interested in the seniors´ period of human age, when a lot of life changes happen. Some seniors are trying to keep in a good shape in that part of their life and various kinds of exercises help them to do it; such as yoga, tai-chi and so on. The goal is to improve the quality of seniors´ life for seniors from CSS and seniors attending CSS activation activities. I am using two questionnaires to determine what quality of life those seniors have. One questionnaire from the World Health Organization is focused on the quality of life and the second one, which I received from Mgr. Petra Vojtová, PhD., is focused on the social health of seniors. Thanks to these questionnaires I would like to finally verify which activation activities affect the quality of life at the seniors´ age.

Physiotherapy as a component of an active stance to a senior´s age
DUDOVÁ, Helena
Problems of senior age are currently and in the view of demographic situation an up-to-date social issue. Many branches of science and various organizations deal with senior age, its particularities in order to help to cope with difficulties which are usually associated with aging and old age. Bachelor thesis involve in the issue of senior age in its active experience which might be strengthened by physiotherapy and medical rehabilitation. The theoretical part of thesis focuses on description of senior age, possibilities of physiotherapy and medical rehabilitation in the old age and on the role of a physiotherapist in the health and social services. The practical part of bachelor thesis assesses questionnaires of an anonymous survey which has been carried out in several health and social services of chosen towns in the Plzeň region (Plzeň, Klatovy, Sušice) and South Bohemia region (České Budějovice, Strakonice, Vodňany). The questionnaires assessed whether a standard offer of those health and social services provided kinesiotherapy and various forms of physical therapy and whether the different offer showed the different satisfaction of seniors. The results show that some forms of physical therapy in the chosen health and social services are not represented, nevertheless this fact does not considerably influence the seniors´ satisfaction. In fact the respondents relatively seldom use provided services of physiotherapy and medical rehabilitation. That is why it would be helpful to extend the offer of physiotherapy and medical rehabilitation in the health and social services and at the same time to increase seniors´ information about the beneficial effect on their physical and mental health.
