Problems of practical teaching of nurses from the perspective of students and nurses
VLČKOVÁ, Darina
The education of nurses, as well as other non-doctor medical workers, has seen significant changes in the course of the past twenty years. In compliance with current legislation, the studies of general nurses only take place at universities and colleges these days.The schooling of nurses consists of theoretical and practical education. Both of them mingle and supplement each other during the complete course of the studies. Theoretical part consists of general as well as special subjects which are followed by practical schooling. This takes place at and ambulatory, ward, one-day and home-based sanitary facilities.Three aims of dissertation were set at the beginning of the research. First was to find about factors which influence the cooperation of students and nurses during the practical session. Second was based on finding factors with influence on nurse's conduct of the practical session. The last aim was to find about factors which motivate and de-motivate students during the practical session.For the purpose of gaining the data, two groups were established. First was the group of seven female students studying the combined form of subject field ?general nurse? at ZSF JU, all of them having received medical education before. Second was the group of nurses working at České Budějovice Hospital, Inc. For the purpose of data collection, the qualitative method of inquiring through semi-standardized interviews was chosen. The answer to the question ? what factors most often influence the cooperation of students and nurses during the practical session? ? was defined by their cooperation, chiefly by the way of their mutual conduct. This was the essential factor pervading all areas of the research.The other important factor applies to the groups of five or more female students where nurses did not have enough time for the students. The other important question was: what influences nurses' conduct of the practical session? As the main positive influence, the interest of students to learn new things as well as their dilligence was cited. The main obstacle in this process, according to nurses, is the lack of time which is devoted to students in order to teach them or show them the aspects of the profession. Demands and challenges of the profession also contribute to the factor cited above. The last but not least factor is the negative influence of large group of students being part of the same shift at the department. And the factors that motivate students during the practical session? It is obvious that the key factor is the possibility to gain information and enough capacity to perform medical actions. At the same time, the students expect helpful and accomodating personnel possessing enough time and patience which should be devoted to them. On the contrary, the factors which de-motivate students are negative attitude and conduct of nurses at departments, too many students grouped into a shift and few opportunities to perform expert medical action. All interviews suggest that improvement could be accomplished through permanent presence of mentors or expert tutors from the faculty who would have enough time for students.It is suggested that data and information from research could be used at clinical facilities for the purpose of practical sessions. The persons responsible for practical sessions could use those data and information to make the practice and cooperation more effective. Information could be used as a base for seminar for shift nurses who get in touch with students on a daily basis. Furthermore, the outputs of research could serve as recommendations for students which could lead to their improvement. Above all, the research serves as a topic for reflection and insight into both worlds.

Observance conditions of registration of nurse on maternity leave.
TRÁVNÍKOVÁ, Hana
Lifelong education and the related topic of meeting requirements for registration of nurses are hotly discussed. The main reason is the constantly changing conditions to register. The purpose is to provide quality nursing care provided by highly competent and educated nurses. Lifelong learning promotes high standards of professional practice. My thesis deals with meeting requirements for registration in nurses on parental leave. The research objective was to identify the most common problems in meeting requirements for registration in nurses on parental leave and to find the difference in meeting requirements for registration in nurses in the working process and nurses on parental leave. The purpose of my research was to confirm my hypothesis that for the nurses on parental leave it is more difficult to meet requirements for registration. For data collection a combination of quantitative and qualitative research was used. In the quantitative research I distributed 150 questionnaires, which were anonymous, to nurses in the districts of Český Krumlov and České Budějovice. 119 questionnaires were returned. In the qualitative research I addressed seven nurses on parental leave, whom I interviewed. The research has proved that nurses on parental leave have little information on educational events. And also, nurses on parental leave do not receive information about educational events from their employers, they cannot take part in those events and do nor get any financial contributions. Nurses on parental leave miss babysitting at educational events. Nurses in the working process can participate in educational events organized by the employer and they also receive financial contributions for educational events. All the nurses agreed on the belief that lifelong learning brings them benefits.

REINDLOVÁ, Jitka
The thesis title is Educative Activities of a Perioperative Nurse at an ORL Department. In her profession, the nurse performs several important roles. One of these is the very role of an educator. No less important is the educative activity of a perioperative nurse which is currently increasingly referred to. Education is important in order for a client to be able to assume an active role in the area of own health care and in order to be able to decide completely with respect to own health provision. An operating procedure is a difficult situation in a person{\crq}s life and it is necessary that a client has all the information available. The objective of this thesis was to map the educative activity of perioperative nurses. In particular with respect to the clients{\crq} satisfaction with pre-operative care within the context of the educative process; whether the education performed by a perioperative nurse alleviates a client{\crq}s anxiety and improves the awareness of clients before an operating procedure. A quantitative research has been selected for the fulfillment of objectives. The survey investigation was executed by means of a questionnaire form. Two anonymous questionnaires were used. The first one was intended for clients after an operating procedure at an ORL department, and the second one for perioperative nurses. The questionnaire survey reflected on 84 clients and 86 perioperative nurses.

Nurse status today and in the future
KOZÁKOVÁ, Martina
Nowadays the status of a medical nurse represents a fairly actual topic. It is a profession where many changes had to be undertaken during a few years beginning with scholars education up to a graduation of a nurse and their responsibilities. A nurse not only plays the role of a caretaker and a helper but is also an individually thinking professional who has received a proper education and has his or her competence bound by the jurisdiction. The theoretical part focuses on the status of a nurse from the sociological viewpoint, on its development from a historical perspective, on changes taking place in the present and stretching to the future and on the trends we might expect in this profession. The practical part contains information obtained by the research which focused on the perception of the status of a nurse by patients, nurses and physicians. The aim of this graduation research was to question nurses in the Czech Republic about their contentment with their current status and explore their future visions, furthermore to obtain opinions on the topic from both patients and physicians. The H1 hypothesis was: nurses are not content with their current social status, was proved correct. The H2 hypothesis was: the ideas of a nurse about his or her future status in the society are positive was proved correct. The H3 hypothesis was: the assessment of the status of a nurse by a patient is negative, wasn´t correct. The H4 hypothesis: physicians do not follow the current status of a nurse, correct. The H5 hypothesis was: physicians do not display any interest in following the status of a nurse in the future was correct.
