Prerequisites for the work of nurses in a hospice
KNĚŽKOVÁ, Klára
The philosophy of our hospices is the human and professional attitude, also team work of all caring. It focuses on ensuring the quality of life in incurably ill until its end. Hospices are slowly getting into people ´s minds; they are becoming the part of care. Yet, general opinion of healthcare workers, also nurses, is still distorted. It is often said that mostly believers or those who do not have sufficient feeling of satisfaction in their personal life go to work in hospices. The view of these nurses on dying could have been changed by education, the more profound study of the problems concerning the care for dying. The thesis is focused on nurses in hospice care. The aim was to find out the real motivation of nurses who decided to work in a hospice. The next aim was to find out if the education of nurses influences their attitudes to the care of ill and dying. Three hypotheses were stated: Religious persuasion is a crucial factor for the nurse ´s choice to work in hospice. The work in hospice is sought out by nurses in connection to the failures in their personal lives. The attitude of nurses to the care of terminally ill depends on their education.Research group was created by 107 nurses from all Czech from sick-bed hospices (including manager nurses). The form of quantitative research by questionnaire method was used.The results of the research might be used for the understanding of nurse role development in palliative and hospice care and for the creating of nurse profile in hospice care. Further, it can contribute to the creation of standard requirements on nurses who are recruited to a hospice.

Influence of stress upon the quality of the provided nursing care at the emergency ambulances.
JAMBOROVÁ, Lenka
I have selected the topic of my bachelor thesis ``The effect of stress on quality of nursing care provided by nurses in acute care facilities`` as I have been always interested in work of nurses in acute care facilities and in mental demands imposed on nurses as a result of such work. Stress is a set of responses by the organism to internal and external impulses, which disturb regular functioning of the organism; stress is an individual response to excessive physical, emotional or intellectual requirements . Communication is viewed as a significant aspect in healthcare. It is a fundamental and integral part of healthcare provided by nurses. Effective communication favorably contributes to recovery of patients as it alleviates fear and confusion and helps to mitigate anxiety and stress. Although we sometime fail to realize that, we assess patients immediately after they arrival to the surgery. We notice whether the patient communicates, whether he/she is nervous, whether his/her appearance is neat and we can see that the patient is in a wheelchair or on crotches. The current nursing standards require a nurse to be a recognized expert in her independent sphere of action. The burnout syndrome is described as a condition of mental and physical exhaustion, most frequently observed in the so-called helping professions. In Czech literature the burnout syndrome has been most frequently mentioned in connection with persons in nursing professions, where the work consists of serving to other people. In the research for my bachelor thesis I have used a qualitative survey using inquiry with a questionnaire. The questionnaire was developed for nurses working in acute care facilities. The survey was conducted in hospitals in České Budějovice, Jindřichův Hradec, Prague Motol, in a psychiatric institution in Jihlava and outpatient clinic in Telč, always subject to approvals granted by the respective head nurses. This thesis sought to find out whether the stress influences the quality of nursing care provided by nurses in acute care facilities. All the three hypotheses - number 1: Stress affects quality of the provided nursing care; number 2: Stress affects health condition of nurses in acute care facilities; and number 3: Good team at the workplace favorably influences work in acute care facilities - have been confirmed . This means that the objective of the work has been achieved. My thesis may be used as a supporting source material for education of medical personnel in hospital practice.

Demans put on nurses work when providing nursing care on hemodialysis department.
KADLEČKOVÁ, Aneta
Abstrakt In our Bachelor Diploma Work we dealt with the problems of the difficult of the work of nurses in the department of haemodialysis. We have chosen this topic because of the growing higher demands made on the nurses. It can be said that the profession of a nurse is very demanding, they are even jeopardized both by the psychological and physical influences. Because of that there are several advices the nurses should know and observe them. The professional literature encourages the nurses in the department of haemodialysis to find at lest a short moment to learn how to rest and to relax. Unfortunately it is not like that in reality. In the theoretical part we focused on the haemodialysis characteristics, on its indications, contra-indications, on the nursing care in this department and naturally on the psychological and physical impacts on the nurses in the department of haemodialysis. For the research investigation I used a semi-structured discussion. It contained 21 questions, the nurses had to answer. The data collection took place during March 2009. The total numer of enquired nurses was 16. The topic was based on the three targets. To find out what demands have been made on the treatment care for the patiens in the department of haemodialysis, to find out, what impact the care has on nurses in the department of haemodialysis and to find out whether the nurses in the department of haemodialysis suffer from the burn-out syndrome. Based on my Bachelor Diploma Work we would like to organize a seminary for the nurses, working in the department of haemodialysis, focused on the burn-out syndrome and correct relaxation.
