Antidekubital care and the differencies in nursing of dekubits in selected retiremens homes.
STEJSKALOVÁ, Petra
Population aging is the most characteristic feature of the demographic development of the Czech Republic and other developed countries in Europe. This demographic development will continue in the years to come. It will be enhanced by aging of members of the populous age-group and afterwards in particular by the increasing life expectancy. A large number of clients of retirement homes are immobile and incline to decubitus development. The objective of my work was to find differences in anti-decubitus equipment used in selected retirement homes and to ascertain awareness of nurses working in those facilities in respect of modern means to treat decubitus. I obtained the information by a questioning method, using a questionnaire completed by nurses working in retirement homes in the Region of South Bohemia; for comparison, the questionnaire was completed by nurses from a retirement home in the Region of Central Bohemia. A directed interview with selected seniors was also used. The results of the work may be used for analysis of different approaches, as far as usage of wound healing means is concerned, and for possible creation of a comprehensive conception in the field of application.
