The use of Arttherapy in coordinated rehabilitation
BARTŮŠEK, Petr
This master's thesis deals with the issue of coordinated rehabilitation and the issue of art therapy as its component. Coordinated rehabilitation is an interrelated process of therapeutic, pedagogical, occupational and social rehabilitation, whose main goal is to minimize the consequences that arise from an individual's disability. Art therapy is a therapeutic and cultivation process using psychological and artistic means to impress the client. Successful rehabilitation is based on early, smooth and coordinated efforts to involve persons with disabilities in everyday activities of life as quickly and as widely as possible. This activation can also be achieved by involving art therapy. The theoretical part consists of two basic chapters. The first chapter deals with the concept of coordinated rehabilitation and its theoretical level. The following subchapters deal with the history of coordinated rehabilitation, international classification of functional abilities, disability and health, as well as topics such as disability, disability classification, multidisciplinary up to health team, as well as social and occupational rehabilitation. The second chapter describes art therapy and its theoretical definition. Afterwards, art therapy will be described in terms of components of coordinated rehabilitation and its concept or legal definition. The aim of this thesis is to find out how can art therapy in the system of coordinated rehabilitation contribute to successful rehabilitation of the client. For the empirical part a qualitative research method was chosen. This type of research was chosen due to the limited number of respondents and in order to gain new knowledge in the above mentioned disciplines. The obtained results can be used to create a feedback tool in the research facility, which can then be used to improve the quality of care provided. This thesis can be further used as a source of information for future clients and their families.
