This thesis is divided into two parts. The first, theoretical part deals mainly with the research on the levels of visual impairment and orientation of the blind in space. In the next chapters of the theoretical part, we learn about the different compensatory aids they can use in their everyday life and the requirements for the interior and its furnishing elements. In the second, practical part, the thesis focuses on my suggestions for limiting the selected collision points. These suggestions are then assessed by a blind person, Mr. Josef Konečný. This is followed by an evaluation of the functionality and feasibility of the selected proposals with a final discussion and contribution to practice.

Integration of Children from Institutional Care to Independent Life
KREJČOVÁ, Kateřina
Leaving institutional care is an important milestone for young adults. After leaving the institute, they may find themselves completely on the fringes of society. Therefore, this work deals with the life of young adults after the end of institutional education. It maps their steps after several years of independent living. The work deals with the issue of completion of institutional education and subsequent independent life of young adults. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to find out how young adults are prepared for this transition to independent living. The work also finds out how the integration process is doing and what tools are used to facilitate it. The work is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part defines the basic concepts. The first concept is a social worker. It is presented here in all the forms that a young adult may encounter when leaving institutional care. Institutional education is defined here. Its individual types and divisions. Furthermore, the work defines the target group of young adults. In a separate chapter, the work deals with the children's home and the phase of leaving the facility with regard to the goal of the work. Some projects aimed at supporting the integration of children from institutional care into independent living are mapped here. Within the research, a qualitative method of secondary analysis of documents of young adults who left institutional care was chosen. This analysis is intended to show the success of young adults in independent living. The work presents the current form of their lives. The research results show involvement in the project. It also includes the evaluation of knowledge after completing a project that is to help with independent living. Research shows that, despite the equal opportunities that the children's home tried to prepare for children during their years in institutional care, everyone took a separate life differently. It is obvious that it depends not only on the possibilities and chances, but also on the personal attitude of each young adult, his habits and the background from which he comes to institutional education. Despite the individual approach and respect for the needs of individual young adults, facilities and special program staff, not every young adult will be able to start living a successful and satisfied life after leaving the children's home.

Nutrition as the primary prevention for seniors and the influence of way of housing on their eating behavior
HLÍZOVÁ, Veronika
This diploma thesis deals with nutrition as the primary prevention for seniors and the influence of way of housing on their eating behavior. With regard to ways of living, they are seniors living in their own household together with a partner, and seniors who live on their own. The aims that are set for this thesis are: mapping eating habits in observed seniros; finding how aware seniors are of nutrition including nutrition recommendations and finding what influence living with a partner or independent living has on eating behavior in observed seniors. To reach the aims a qualitative research method was used. Data colletion was done via semistructured interviews with healthy seniors living in the town of Kaplice. The obtained data was subsequently coded and categorized. I consider the finding of insufficient consumption of fruit, vegetables, milk including dairy products, and an unnecessary intake of candies and sweetened beverages in seniors to be a significant finding. Seniors usually get correct information about nutrition including nutrition recommendations, however, there are certain shortcomings in information about the recommended amounts of fruit and vegetable consumption or foods containing Vitamin D. In connection to the housing issues, a significant influence of independent living on seniors´ tendency to ignore themselves. With regard to the observed shortcomings in both nutrition as well as respondents´ awareness I would recommend an increase in senior education. An information leaflet, which I created and which is also a part of the appendix of this thesis, may serve as a tool.
