Kavalírová, Olga ; Tomášková, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Čabanová, Bohumila (referee)
This diploma thesis, "Institute or field services?", deals with the topic of social services for people with intellectual disabilities. It focuses on the analysis of various types of social services - field, outpatient and residential services - due to the specific needs of different clients with intellectual disabilities. The aim of the thesis is to determine the structure of clients in residential institutions for people with intellectual disabilities and to identify factors on which families choose to use specific social services and determine the views of stakeholders in the field of social services on the benefits and limits of those types of services for people with intellectual disabilities. The issue of social services is assessed through the theoretical concept of rights of people with intellectual disabilities and the concept of de-institutionalization of social services. As a research method the questionnaire was used for providers of residential services in the capital city of Prague and interviews with various stakeholders in the field of services for people with intellectual disabilities. The conclusion discusses the most important issues in the care of people with intellectual disabilities and specific recommendations for improving the issue.

Domov Pod Lipami clients adaptation to the supported accommodation
Svrčková, Jana ; Ortová, Marie (advisor) ; Klípa, Miroslav (referee)
Domov Pod Lipami clients adaptation to the supported accommodation Supported accommodation is residential social service for persons with limited self-sufficiency who need help with basic everyday activities. The aim of supported accommodation is to enable disabled persons to live as the majority of the population in as many ways as possible. The target group of the service are persons who would otherwise have to be placed in institutional care. The service is aimed at the social rehabilitation of an individual; it is based on the principles of fundamental human rights and freedoms and originates from the idea that disabilities should have the least possible impact on the full inclusion of an individual into the society. The dissertation describes the service of supported accommodation in practice of one of the social care institution and its aim is to find out if the clients regard the service as beneficial for them or not.

The Palliative Care of Dying People with Intellectual Disabilities in Sheltered Housing
Hušnerová, Lucie ; Cimrmannová, Tereza (advisor) ; Stretti, Sylvie (referee)
My diploma thesis is called The Palliative Care of Dying People with Intellectual Disabilities in Sheltered Housing. The purpose of the text is to create an overview study of palliative care about dying people with mental disabilities. The reason why I have decided to focus on such a relevant issue is a wide shortage of information in Czech Republic compared to other countries. People with mental disabilities nowadays tend to live longer and the question of palliative care for them is crucial. My thesis is divided into six main sections. In the first section I talk about the ethics dilemma of palliative care. By ethics dilemma I mean problems that are needed to be dealt with in palliative care. One of them is the decision if it is adequate to die in an institution or in a home environment. In this section for instance it is described if it is necessarily to tell the truth the patients about their health conditions. The text is also referring to the medical advances comparing to quality of life of dying people. I also describe what the quality of life means to people and how to reach the highest level of quality of life in palliative care. In the second part of my thesis I describe the social, health and other services which are suitable for dying people and their relatives. Most of the named...

Srncová, Eva ; Vochocová, Lenka (advisor) ; Miessler, Jan (referee)
We do not find much information in Czech literature about the influence of social media on a person with a intellectual disability. At the same time, the media can greatly influence the integration of people with disabilities, especially in countries where they have been excluded from public life for long time. This diploma thesis focuses on people with mental disabilities, who live in social care facilities. So my main goal is to describe the aims and motivations which lead them to social media. Research of the diploma thesis aims to clarify several questions about the extent and manner of social media use by people with intellectual disabilities. It could be assumed that the environment will greatly influence habits related to the consumption of social media, therefor is research focused exclusively only on those, whose home is a social care institution or sheltered housing. Introduction of this work is devoted to literature's research on a related topic. The main tasks of this diploma thesis are: typology of motivations that bring people with mental disabilities to social media, to describe how they think about this motivation and finally to describe their habits and experiences associated with the use of social media. Final result of these points is a typology of the purposes for which they use...
