Methods used In the research part of the thesis, we used the method of qualitative research, questioning method and technique-depth interviews. The interviews were recorded on a Dictaphone and then transcribed literally. Four sisters and three mothers did not wish to be recorded, so they were interviewed at polling literally written on paper. For research, two research files were created. The first sample consisted of six nurses, who were working in GP surgery for children and adolescents in the South Region. Second survey consisted of six people selected from among parents of children with high normal pressure and hypertension, also from South Bohemia. Results The transcribed interviews were investigated by open coding method, pencil and paper.

The eighth chapter contains the specifics of the children's department. In the ninth chapter is divided into childage. The tenth chapter discusses communication as a part of nursing care. A final chapter describes the process of hospitalization of children and their parents. The thesis is divided into theoretical and empirical parts. Much of the theory is described above whereas the empirical section describes the results of the research. Objectives and research questions The first objective of this thesis was to investigate how the nurse communicates with the parents of a child patient. The second objective was to determine whether a parent understands the information given by the sister and the final objective was to determine any errors that the nurse makes when they communicate with parents of child patients. Research questions: 1. How the nurse communicates with the parent of a child patient? 2. How does the nurse inform parents of a child patient? 3. How a parent of a child patient assesses the clarity of the information provided by the nurse? 4. What mistakes nurse makes in communication with the parents of a child patient? Methodics For the research a survey was chosen to provide qualitative information, which was obtained via interviews. The second methodology used in this work is called participant observation. Data for the first part of the survey was obtained through semi-structured interviews with the parents of hospitalized children. Interviews were conducted on the basis of questions prepared in advance. If necessary, the interview was supplemented with other issues. The interview was to determine how children were admitted to the children's department, what information reached parents about the examination of the child, and also the overall impression of the nurses on the ward. We asked parents about the verbal and nonverbal communication of sisters. They described the errors they found in the communication and behavior of nurses. The second part of the research was anonymous on the pediatric ward of the hospital where nurses evaluated verbal and nonverbal communication skills. The research group The research set for the first part of the survey consisted of seven mothers of children hospitalized in the pediatric ward. The mothers were in different hospitals in the Czech Republic.

The role of nurses in the nursing care for a deceased child
KOUTNÍKOVÁ, Radka
This thesis deals with the nursing care for a deceased child and it focuses on the role of nurses, their attitudes and the way nurses care for a deceased child. In a highly professional care, it is necessary to humanize the last moments of life of a child; therefore, there are rituals that are acceptable for the dying child, the family and nursing staff. Caring for dying children is a very demanding task for medical staff and it may be divided into medical, social, psychological and spiritual care. In case of severely ill or dying children, we must identify real and potential problems, set short and long term goals, set out plans of care, provide specific nursing activities and evaluate their effectiveness and efficiency. All health professionals must work together and with the whole family. To say that life has ended is a challenging and difficult moment in the medical profession. Talking with the bereaved families requires a high level of communication skills. The entire medical team must manage this situation with dignity. The results and the theoretical part of the thesis will serve as an information resource for nurses who care for dying and deceased children. Nurses may be inspired by the thesis results, which may serve to improve nursing care in these situations. The benefits of this thesis lie in the recognition of the need for expanding the education of nurses and subsequent utilization of the acquired knowledge and skills in practice. It could also serve the employer?s reflection over the care for the staff working in such a demanding profession.

The thesis tries to find the answer to the basic question: "What are the possible ways to strengthen attachment between children at the age from 9 to 18 months and their caregivers at the facilities of institutional care, nurses in particular?" The work also aspires to map the external conditions influencing formation of the attachment. In order to explain the topic, some theoretical findings of developmental psychology, attachment theory and information about the system of institutional care in the Czech Republic have been presented here. The answers concerning the strongest factors of attachment behavior and different attachment of one child to various caregivers and vice versa were being sought with the help of the method of an involved observation of the interaction child-caregiver during specific activities of feeding and bathing.
