MATOUŠKOVÁ, Sára
This bachelor's thesis deals with the social needs of single mothers in Tabor. The aim of this thesis was to map out the social needs of single mothers in Tabor - to find out what social needs single mothers have and to identify key problems in fulfilling these needs. Two research questions were established: 1. What are the needs of single mothers? 2. What are the key problems in fulfilling their social needs? To achieve this goal, a qualitative research strategy was chosen, using the method of questioning and the technique of semi-structured interviews. The research sample, which was selected by purposive sampling, consisted of single mothers living in the city of Tabor. Interviews were conducted with a total of 6 communication partners. The information obtained was then processed using open coding in the Atlas.ti program. Two categories were created from the processed data. The research results showed that the communication partners have several social needs on which they agree. These include the need for social contact, social support, financial autonomy, and safety and security. The results also revealed that communication partners often share the problems that prevent them from fulfilling their needs. The main problems are lack of time, balancing work and family life, and finances. The results also present forms of help that communication partners believe could aid in the easier fulfilment of their social needs. The results of this bachelor's thesis can be used as informational material for social workers or social service organizations. The bachelor's thesis could also help with improving public awareness about this topic.

Social needs of clients in selected homes for the elderly.
JAKLOVÁ RADOVÁ, Kateřina
My thesis is divided into the theoretical part, where I describe the definition of the term senior, I also focused to old age and aging, I describe changes in old age for example. In the last chapter, I deal with the concept of needs. There are divided social needs in connection with the quality of life in old age, there is listed Maslow's pyramid of needs. The individual needs are described in detail. In the second part of my bachelor's thesis, I present the aim of the thesis, which is to map the fulfilment of social needs of clients in selected homes for the elderly from their perspective. There are also a research questions, how their social needs are met from the point of view of clients of social services for the elderly, how the social needs of clients are met from the point of view of employees and what are the differences between individual homes for the elderly in meeting the social needs of their clients. The third part presents the methodology and technique of data collection, the research set is described here, and the ethical side of the research is also mentioned. In my bachelor's thesis, I tried to find out the fulfilment of social needs of seniors in these homes by using questionnaire methods and interviews with employees from retirement homes (Horní Stropnice retirement home, České Velenice retirement home, Český Krumlov retirement home). The research file formed 12 clients from the Home for the Elderly Horní Stropnice, 12 clients from the Home for the Elderly Česká Velenice and 15 clients from the Home for the Elderly Český Krumlov. This number results from the number of clients who were able to complete the questionnaires. I also interviewed six employees from these three homes for elderly. The results of my research showed that in all homes for the elderly that I examined, the social needs of clients are sufficiently met. Some clients are not satisfied with the accommodation in a multiple room. The answers to the question of whether they feel fear are astonishing. Surprisingly, I have seen more responses, with clients feeling scared and some saying they should. I also found out that most seniors have contact with other clients or at least have this opportunity. Clients stated that they have the opportunity to talk about their problems and afflictions with the employees of homes for the elderly, which I perceive as positive. Clients very often use this option, talk to employees and also confide in them about their problems or worries. It is also gratifying that the family commutes to most clients at least once a week, rarely the family commuting once a month and occasionally once a year. Some questions focused on friendships and relationships between clients. I think it is beneficial for clients to be able to share a room with their partners and to share intimate moments with their partners. With this thesis, I wanted to help the general public to look into the issues of social needs of clients in homes for the elderly and it could serve as a guide for the retirement home, which are trying to meet these needs
