Role of Social Worker in South-Bohemian Hospitals
HORŇÁKOVÁ, Dagmar
This thesis focuses on the role of social workers in South-Bohemian hospitals - their duties, their role as part of the multidisciplinary team caring for a patient, how their profession is viewed by their work colleagues, and how social workers perceive their role within the hospital. The main focus is on various dilemmas and the possible scope of social work in the hospital. The thesis is composed of two main parts - the theoretical part and the practical one. The theoretical part discusses the terms "social worker" and "medical social worker", how social workers operate within the hospital, and what the legislative basis for their work is. The theoretical part also takes a closer look at the dilemmas of social work that social workers can encounter in their job, and describes the patient target groups that social workers most often work with .In the practical part, the research of three areas of inquiry has been made, revealing that the most important prerequisites of a social worker in a hospital are social and medical education, a clearly defined role within the team taking care of the patient, and a good knowledge of social services network, whose assistance is offered to the patients by the social worker as part of the social help during their stay in the hospital. The biggest obstacle in a social worker's job is the large volume of administrative work, when the work with patients itself is done at the expense of the administrative workload. The appropriate solution seems to be an increase in the number of social workers in the hospital, whose job it is to take some load off the busy medical staff.

The role of nurse in an interdisciplinary team in the care of patient with decubitus
HUBKOVÁ, Šárka
Introduction: Pressure ulcers are one of the most monitored indicators of nursing care. Thanks to a well-functioning interdisciplinary team, pressure ulcers can be effectively prevented. Main aims of the thesis: The aim of this work is to map the role of nurse in an interdisciplinary team, to describe how the interdisciplinary teams currently work and what the effectiveness of their work is in relation to the prevention of pressure ulcers and their healing. Methodology: A qualitative research survey was used to collect the data in the form of semi-structured interviews wtih nurses. The selection criterion was the fact that they encounter patients suffering from pressure sores. The informants were getting method Snow ball. The resulting set of informants consisted of 15 persons. The results of the interviews were processed using the open-coding technique of pencil and paper and then divided into six categories. Results of the thesis: Research shows that the nurse plays a key role in the interdisciplinary team in the care of a patient with pressure ulcers. Her role is to work with other team members, direct patient care, preventive work and family contact. The results show that the nurse is a full member of the team. The overall care effect of the interdisciplinary team is ineffective in some departments, because, as it happens that individual workers do not work together. In our research, we mainly come across the absence of a nutritional therapist. Also, nurses would welcome more cooperation from lower medical staff. Furthermore, nurses perceive the use of scales as a certain obligation, and in some cases report their incorrect evaluation. Last but not least, we are confronted with ignorance and non-compliance with the standards of pressure ulcers treatment. Conclusion: We would like to convey the results achieved by the necessity of cooperation of all workers who care for a patient with pressure ulcers. The provision of complex care is essential in this area, because pressure ulcers are multifactorial. The use of interdisciplinary teams in the care of a patient with pressure ulcers brings the possibility to use people with different expertise, knowledge and experience. Together, they effectively work towards the early recovery of the patient, shortening the hospitalization period and saving the cost of hospitalization.
