Multicultural approach in Pre-hospital care
JANOVÁ, Andrea
The topic of the bachelor thesis is dedicated to multicultural nursing specifically in the conditions of pre-hospital emergency care. In today's globalized society it is necessary for paramedics to have basic knowledge of multicultural care. The theoretical part defines basic concepts in multicultural treatment, it is dedicated to communication and characterizes individual minorities living in the Czech Republic. For the practical part, there were three goals set: 1. To map out the approach of paramedics while providing care to a member of another nationality in the conditions of pre-hospital emergency care. 2. To map out the experience of paramedics with the individuals of given cultures within pre-hospital emergency care. 3. Find out the opinion of paramedics on whether they were sufficiently prepared for multicultural care within the qualification study. To fulfil set goals, qualitative research method was used, via the approach of queries and semi-structured interview technique. The research sample consisted of paramedics of the Karlovy Vary and South Bohemia regions with various lengths of experience. The research investigation found, that paramedics choose the same approach when in contact with ethnic groups. They are aware of various differences, though the most common problem is the communication barrier. The paramedics have both positive and negative experiences considering providing care to minorities. The research revealed, that the education about multicultural care is mostly insufficient and that the paramedics are willing to further educate themselves on the issue. Based on the research, an option of developing a special application was proposed. It would be able to quickly and precisely translate even professional medical terms from different languages in action. An information brochure about the principles of providing pre-hospital emergency care to ethnic groups was also made. Furthermore, it would also be possible to compile information from the bachelor thesis into scripts, which would be intended for teaching about multicultural nursing.
The communication skills of nurses with patients of foreign culture
JAREŠOVÁ, Marie
This Master thesis is focused on the communication skills of nurses with patients of different culture. The goal of this thesis was to figure out the barriers which arise during the communication with patients of different culture and to further determine the knowledge of nurses about proper approach with these patients. The next goal was to gather the patients experience in the area of communication in healthcare facilities and to find out their communication specifications. In the theoretical part, general principles of communication were described. Subsequently, three various national minorities (Vietnamese, Romany, and Ukrainian) and two religious minorities (Orthodox and Muslim), which can be found in the Czech Republic, were introduced. Most importantly, their characteristics and their specifications in the field of healthcare and communication were defined. The empiric part of the thesis was evaluated by a qualitative research with a semi-structured interview as a data gathering technique. The first subject group included general nurses which had had experience with taking care of patients of different culture. The second subject group consisted of several individuals of particular national and religious minorities (Vietnamese, Ukrainian, Romany, Muslim and Orthodox). Obtained information from the interviews was sorted into individual categories and subcategories. Eventually, the data showed that the biggest problem which arises during the communication between nurses and individual patients of different national and religious minorities is a language barrier from the side of the healthcare professional. It is mostly due to the fact that a hospitalized patient in a Czech healthcare facility is not always able to actively communicate with the staff in Czech. Additionally, it was observed that apart of the language barrier, there is a need to continuously educate the healthcare personnel about individual aspects of cultural and communicational specifications of mentioned minorities. The main and most important finding of this thesis is that the attending personnel is always willing to look for a way how to communicate with foreign patients on a personal and professional level even despite the language barrier. The output of this Master thesis is an educational material made for general nurses which helps with the introduction of particular communication specifications of patients of several chosen national and religious minorities.

Safety process in anesteziology care and perioperative care
Benáková, Miluše ; Heczková, Jana (advisor) ; Kordulová, Pavla (referee)
Patient safety is one of the top priorities of anesthesia and perioperative care in the operating room. The patient safety is greatly compromised due to administered medication and the actual operating performance in the perioperative care. The risks of anesthesia and the operational performance are many, starting with the fall of the patient, the possible wrong- site, wrong-procedure, wrong-patient errors, adverse reactions to administered medication, difficult airway management or an unexpected perioperative bleeding. Patient harm in hospital care leads not only to increased costs for additional treatment, prolongation of the hospitalization time, but also significantly affects the subsequent quality of life. Most adverse events are preventable, since most of them are caused by susceptible factors, such as incomplete or incorrect information or the lack of communication between the members of the operating team. Due to the increasing number of such adverse events around the world, including those of the most serious, The World Health Organization has created a program called The Save Surgery Saves Lives, whose aim was the identification of key risk areas in ensuring the safety of patients. On the basis of the identified risk areas the Surgical Safety Checklist was introduced in 2008. It is aimed...
