Evaluation of the Volunteer Program in the Hospital Ceské Budejovice Ltd
MALÁ, Lenka
Volunteering in the Czech Republic Heath Service has started to appear gradually but systematically since 2000. In the Health Service area mainly, volunteering should have its irreplaceable role and it should be in service of making patient's stay in hospital more pleasant. The subject of volunteering has taken my interest not only because of my job, as a registered nurse, but even more, it was my aim to gain more knowledge in this matter. As a future goal, I would like to make an attempt to bring volunteers to Elderly People Home where I am currently employed. The theoretical part deals with the definition of basic terms as volunteering and volunteer. The attention is given to the types of volunteering, development and progress of volunteering in Health Service. Volunteer's program in hospital is also described i.e. its particular stages, realisation, participants, basic structure of management and reciprocal relationship among individual participants. With respect to the aim of my thesis, Volunteer's programme in Ceske Budejovice Hospital is introduced there. Finally, I also focus on motivation, social behaviour and altruism. The analytical part is realised by quantitative research and by the technique of semistructured controlled interview. Six participants took part in it. The results of the survey were processed by a specific quantitative method. The results of the research showed that communication partners see the benefit in this type of volunteering not only for themselves but also for patients and hospital staff. As motivation for this volunteer activity they indicate essentially gaining new experiences. The results of this thesis can be used as a feedback for Volunteer's programme in Ceske Budejovice Hospital.
