Volunteer management system in nursing homes
ŠTEIEROVÁ, Michaela
Volunteering is an integral part of human life. Voluntary activity can be defined as an independent activity carried out for the benefit of others without the right to a financial reward. The social area is one of the most needed areas in which volunteers can carry out their activities. This thesis deals with the management system of volunteers in homes for the elderly. The main goal of this work was to analyze the management of volunteers in homes for the elderly and their cooperation with other subjects. Qualitative research was chosen to achieve the goals of the thesis. The interviewing method was chosen as the method of data collection, which took place with individual informants using semi-structured interviews. The data was processed using the grounded theory technique and graphically represented in the software program ATLAS.ti, which complement the diploma thesis. On the basis of the research, it was found that the volunteer management system that nursing homes provide in cooperation with volunteer centers is managed more efficiently than in cases where nursing homes provide it themselves. Above all, the wide range of services provided results in long-term involvement of volunteers in homes for the elderly. This fact brings for the facilities themselves an increase in the quality of life of their clients. The results of my work can be useful especially for volunteer centers and homes for the elderly. They can be of benefit to the public as an insight into this current and very important area. I believe that the results themselves can also be useful for social service providers in the South Bohemian Region, as the work is mainly focused on this region, and is supplemented by the statements of the workers of homes for the elderly in this region about what information they have about the volunteer management system.

Activity of Volunteers in Retirement Homes During the COVID-19 Pandemic
POSLUŠNÁ, Věra
Volunteering is an integral part of human life. Volunteering can be understood as a meaningful activity that helps the needy, is held of free will and without the right to financial reward. The social field is one of the most needed areas in which volunteers can work. This bachelor thesis deals with the activities of volunteers in retirement homes during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main goal is to analyze the performance of volunteering in retirement homes during the COVID-19 pandemic. A partial goal is a subsequent comparison of the experience of individual homes for the elderly with volunteering during a pandemic and to provide examples of good practice. The strategy of qualitative research was chosen for the research of this bachelor thesis. The data were collected by the method of questioning, which took place using the technique of semi-controlled interview. It was then evaluated by an open coding process, in a pencil-paper manner. Following the open coding process, categories were created, which were then divided into three areas. For greater clarity, a diagram was created from each category, which presents the given category. Based on the research, it was found that the classic volunteer activity, thanks to the Government regulation in the Czech Republic and special precantions of the Ministry of Health, did not take place at all. Only in the periods of liberalization of the previously mentioned regulations and precantions, which, however, were few, did some homes for the elderly return to classic volunteer activities. On the contrary, it is clear from the research that even during the COVID-19 pandemic, volunteers were actively involved and were beneficial for users and homes for the elderly.

The role of volunteer in Context of Social Work with family taking care of a child with autism spectrum disorder
RAABOVÁ, Veronika
The family is the basic unit of society and the most important primary group in the socialization of the individual. If a child with an autism spectrum disorder is born into a family, it is a big shock for its members. There are a number of social services for these families that can help them with this difficult fate. The question is whether the child does not need a different form of attention than the one he/she receives from organizations providing these services. The volunteer could be an excellent helper in these families and an indispensable friend for the child. The aim of my bachelor thesis is to describe the role of a volunteer working in a family caring for a child with autism spectrum disorder as a supplement to social work with the family. To achieve the goal, the method of qualitative research and a form of questioning through a semi-structured interview was chosen, and the results were interpreted using the method of clusters. Based on the research, it is clear that the volunteer becomes an important support for the whole family and, above all, a much-needed friend of a child with an autism spectrum disorder. Its benefit lies not only in the child's development through play, but it is also a significant support for the child's parents. The research also reveals the risks of cooperation between a volunteer and a family caring for a child with an autism spectrum disorder. These are the volunteers' imperfect communication skills and parents' concerns about the insufficient training of these volunteers in the field of autism spectrum disorders. But all this is perfectly replaced by his/her indispensable help in the family. The bachelor thesis can serve as an information source for families with children suffering from autism spectrum disorder about the possibility of volunteer help. At the same time, this paper can strengthen the motivation of volunteers to volunteer in these families.
