KALČÍKOVÁ, Aneta
The bachelor thesis deals with the use of the concept of Basal Stimulation in nursing care of geriatric patients. Objectives of the thesis: To find out how nurses use the concept of Basal stimulation in nursing care of geriatric patients. Methodology and research set: Based on the goal, one research question was created. How do nurses use the concept of Basal Stimulation in geriatric patients in nursing practice? For the research survey, we chose a qualitative research strategy where the polling method was used. The data collection technique was semi-structured interviews that were conducted on nurses working in hospitals and social care facilities. The research group consisted of 13 sisters. The criterion for selecting nurses was the use of the concept of Basal Stimulation in geriatric patients. The obtained data was processed by open coding, pencil and paper method. Results: Based on data analysis, 7 categories and 3 subcategories were created. The results of the research show that the nurses are oriented in the concept of Basal Stimulation and manage to use the concept in geriatric patients. It was found that more than half of the nurses had completed a course of Basal Stimulation. Nurses manage to define the individual elements of Basal Stimulation. During the investigation, it was found that all nurses maintain contact with the patient's family. The patient's family is a source of information that is important for the biographical history. This anamnesis then allows nurses not only to better understand the patient and his needs, but also to conduct more systematic communication with each other. Recommendations for practice: We recommend that the patient's family be included in the application of the basal stimulation concept.
