Nurse management of patients with visual impairment during admission and hospitalization
 PRÁŠILOVÁ, Renáta
The present thesis focuses on managing the work of nurses caring for patients with visual impairment. Visually challenged patients constitute a particular group of patients with needs and demands different from those of sighted patients due to their visual impairment. The research aimed to investigate the experiences and knowledge of nurses providing care to patients with visual impairment and to identify the most frequent challenges and barriers that arise when delivering care. The empirical part of the thesis used qualitative research methods. Data was gathered using semi-structured interviews. Even though the research results cannot be generalised as they are specific to the research population, they revealed many very serious difficulties that nurses and patients have to deal with daily. The research also highlighted the underlying causes of these difficulties. Nurses have limited experience in treating patients with visual impairment. The lack of training programmes for this specific group of patients means that nurses do not know how to approach and communicate with them appropriately. The results of the present thesis may inspire the management of healthcare providers responsible for providing a safe environment for patients with visual impairments. The research results indicate a general deficiency in training programmes focusing on the care of the visually impaired.
