Nurse and her work in prison system of the Czech Republic.
KRÁLOVÁ, Michaela
Abstract The title of the Bachelor´s thesis is "The nurse and her work in the prison service of the Czech Republic. The nurse´s work always starts from the patient´s needs and shall provide the patient with the feeling of surety. The nurse´s work is focused not only on the nursing care but also on the support of the health and healthy living standard. It is a set of measures and particular activities which the nurse carries out, is qualified to carry them out and is responsible for them. The nursing care depends entirely upon the patient's condition and the surroundings where the patient is found. It is beneficial for the nurse working in the prison service to have experience in more nursing specialisations as her work is large-scale and the nursing care is not just focused on one body organ and its associated complications. The main objective was to map out the specifics of the work of the nurse working in the prison service of the Czech Republic whether within outpatient or inpatient wards. We were interested in what had motivated the nurses to work in the prison service of the Czech Republic, what her duties were and how the nursing care was carried out in the prison service of the Czech Republic. The research was done using qualitative research methods. The selected research technique was a semi-structured interview, which was developed based on valid standards and legislation and according to specialized literature related to the problems of the prison service of the Czech Republic. The results of the interviews were analysed by means of casuistries which then became the base for categorised charts and graphs. The research sample composed of six respondents who work as a general nurse in the prison service of the Czech Republic. By means of the research, we found out that the interviewed nurses work in compliance with valid standards and legislation. The nursing care is carried out in the form of a nursing process and the work of the interviewed nurses working in the prison service of the Czech Republic has its own specifics and differs especially in the approach to the prisoner/patient and in the communication with him/her. The most frequent specific facts of the work of the interviewed nurses were accompanying the prison service officers whether accompanying the respondents or a prisoner/patient, day-and-night locking, more administrative work. The motivation of the nurses to work in the prison service appeared to be an interesting salary, new experience and curiosity. The job description of the interviewed nurses in the prison service of the Czech Republic is defined by a given specialisation of a particular facility and internal rules of the facility where the interviewed nurses work. The thesis concluded that the interviewed nurses working in the prison service of the Czech Republic have got a different and specific job which is mainly influenced by the structure of the patients and the surroundings where the patients are located. It is a mentally-demanding job. In practice the results of the research could be used at the specialised conference for non-medical professions in healthcare or published in a specialised journal of health care.

Impact of education on clients with leukemia.
DAVIDOVÁ, Adéla
The theoretical part of my bachelor thesis is focused on the description and characteristics of leukaemia, its diagnostics and treatment. Further, the theoretical part is focused on nursing care of clients suffering from leukaemia and meeting their bio-psycho-social needs. Last but not least, it deals with communication and the education process concerning leukaemia. The practical part of my bachelor thesis aims to find out the manner in which education is provided, the fields of the education conducted and how much clients suffering from leukaemia are contented with the education provided. To obtain data and process them, I used a qualitative research survey and the method of the semi-structured interview. I carried out anonymous interviews with two groups of respondents. The first group consisted of nurses working in a clinical haematology department, and the other were clients hospitalised in this department - clients with diagnosed leukaemia. The information that I obtained may help to improve communication between medical staff members and their clients, to improve the education of clients suffering from leukaemia, and, thanks to the correctly conducted education, to make dealing with the disease easier.

The system and the financing system of psychiatric care in the Czech Republic in the period 2010-2016
Křížová, Natálie ; Lukášová, Tereza (advisor) ; Bartůsková, Lucia (referee)
The bachelor thesis focuses on mental health, which is becoming a socio-economic problem these days. Since there is a constant prevalence of patients with mental illnesses and thus an increase of a burden in the economic system, this work explains the system of psychiatric care, which is crucial for the future development of mental health of Czech population. Based on the analysis of the issue it is evident that the effort to manage the care system to community care will do not contribute to the reduction of treatment costs, but on the other hand, will facilitate the accessibility to psychiatric facilities for patients. The funding of psychiatric care is not based on the national health system, which influences the direction of a large part of the funds for treatment in psychiatric hospitals.

Risk group of persons with disabilities on the labour market in Prague from 2005 to 2015
Hošková, Laura ; Maule, Petr (advisor) ; Lukášová, Tereza (referee)
The theoretical part of the Bachelor Thesis comprehensively illustrates the status and representation of persons with disabilities (PWD) on the current labour market in the Czech Republic. In a general manner, the Thesis looks at the employment policy as well; especially its legislative basis in the legal framework of the Czech Republic and selected EU countries. Furthermore, the legal obligations of employers of PWD and the possibilities of fulfilling the mandatory share of PWD employment are stated. Findings of two qualitative employment studies are presented showing that PWD enter the labour market equipped with specialized competencies, which they are willing to complete by retraining programmes in case of need. The employers perceive the employment of PWD mainly as a financial profit, granted to them by the state; and the legislative conditions are a sufficient incentive for them. The questionnaire survey pointed out that the weakness in the employment of PWD is the lack of part-time jobs, which are highly demanded among them. Therefore the Thesis presents a solution, which could be the creation of shared work positions.

Romany paras versus hospitalization in hospitals
BABKOVÁ, Lucie
In my bachelor thesis I was engaged in Romany questions namely the problems of Romany women. My work is devided into two parts. The first part is theoretical and the second part encludes the research work. In the first part I dealt with Romany comunity from its history until present. I tried to refer to some hot themes such as the Romany family, education, living Romany attitude to their health, etc. In the end of the theoretical part I´ve briefly mentioned the transcultural nursing which should help us (meaning the medical staff) with our approach to the Romany ethnic group. I´ve made the research by the help of 29 closed question questionnaires. The questionnaires were given to 100 Romany women in South Bohemia. 70 filled in questionnaires were given back to me and this was the sample I worked with in my research of my bachelor thesis. The answeres in the questionnaires ought to confirm or to displace the set hypothesis. The fist hypothesis {--} the Romany women take the negative line to a longer hospitalization. The second hypothesis- the Romany women are leaving hospital before they were relased on the ground of outlasting conventional model of Romany family. On the basis of the answeres gained from the questionnaires it is possible to say that neither the first or the second of the set hypothesis in this work wasn´t acknowledged. The Romany women don´t have any negative attitude to the hospitalization not even to the medical staff. In case that they have some reservations to the hospitalization those are only reservations concerning to lack of something (TV, choise of meals, prohibition of smoking and others). The second hypothesis was disconfirmed by the fact that 60% of Romany women after childbirth left the hospital after they were released by the doctor. In case that the women left hospital even it was for a short therm only the medical staff was informed by them. The most frequent reason leading to leaving hospital was the anxiety of children who were left at home. This was in a close connection to the age and to the number of already birthed children. The elderly expectant mothers having more children left hospital more often without the awareness of the medical satff or on declaration written undertaking then the younger expectant mothers that got over less births and having less children at home. For denying of this second hypothesis it is possible to assume the weakening of the influence of conventional model of Romany family.

Specific features of nursing care provided to members of the Church of Scientology.
MATOUŠKOVÁ, Eva
The Church of Scientology was officially registered in Los Angeles in 1954. It is present in more than 150 countries of the world, and is professed by over 8 million people. The founder of the movement is the American author of science fiction and fiction, Laffayete Ron Hubbard, who conducted research in the sphere of the human spirit, summarised in his books "Dianetics". Later on, he focused his research on spiritual beings and their abilities. This gave rise to an applicable religious philosophy - Scientology. It has not been possible to register the Church of Scientology officially in the Czech Republic so far, and therefore it acts as the civil association of "Dianetické centrum" (the Dianetic Centre). The number of its members and sympathisers in this country is not very high, reaching approximately 800 persons. Still, it is important for us to know the differences of this minority, to be able to provide its members with nursing care corresponding to their specific needs. This subject is dealt with by the multi-cultural nursing care studying cultures and religions from the point of view of nursing practice. In connection with globalisation, this subject becomes even more topical. The national, cultural and ethnic structure of the population undergoes gradual changes and the number of foreigners legally residing in the territory of the Czech Republic keeps growing. For this reason, it is important even for nurses to be prepared and have at least the minimum knowledge of multi-cultural / trans-cultural nursing care that will enable them to provide adequate nursing care respecting the specifics in question. The objective of my thesis is to get to know the specific features of nursing care provided to members of the Church of Scientology and to establish the specific features of their life style. To meet the objectives, I set five research questions. Research question 1: Do members of the Church of Scientology have specific needs when they are being provided nursing care? Research question 2: What is the attitude of members of the Church of Scientology to the health care provided in the Czech Republic? Research question 3: Do members of the Church of Scientology have specific spiritual needs? Research question 4: What attitude do members of the Church of Scientology have towards their health? Research question 5: Do members of the Church of Scientology have a specific life style? To collect data for fulfilling my research objectives and obtaining answers to the research questions, I applied the method of qualitative research. To conduct the qualitative research I used the technique of a semi-structured interview with the members of the Church of Scientology attending the Dianetic Centre in Prague. The interview contained altogether 46 questions divided into four areas, and the participants were four men and four women of different ages and different lengths of being members of the Church. The qualitative examination established the main and most distinct specific feature in providing nursing care to members of the Church of Scientology, which is maintaining silence at the time when human mind is weakened. Further, the research showed that scientologists respect physicians and do not exclude them in cases of accidents or danger of life. They normally undergo preventive examinations and do not object to being vaccinated provided that they are supplied with sufficient information. The only exception is psychiatry. Being provided with assists constitutes the only spiritual need, and the Church of Scientology has no specifics in terms of diet. This thesis may be used as a study material for general nurses and students of nursing studies, to expand knowledge in the field of multi-cultural / trans-cultural nursing care, which will facilitate providing culture-specific nursing care to members of this religious minority.

Simulation of the operation of the hospital department
Olejár, Filip ; Dlouhý, Martin (advisor) ; Kuncová, Martina (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the solution to a real situation that occurred at Nemocnice Na Františku in Prague. The problem is solved by using a computer simulation in SIMUL8 simulation program. At the beginning I describe the theoretical foundations that are afterwards used as a basis for the main practical part. The main subject of the work is a simulation of an operation of the hospital outpatient department. The hospital management decided to change the system for handling patients operations. I have created simulation models for particular workday and weekend means of patients serving operations. The created simulation models and their outputs are evaluated in the final part of the thesis and will serve as a basis for making reorganization decisions in the hospital. The provided advice for hospital management fulfills the goal of this thesis.
