Transformations Capacity in selected Social Services for Seniors in the Pilsen Region
KUČERA, Vít
The demographic changes of society affect its structure, which is the subject of many disciplines and experts working in them. In the introductory part of this work we draw on knowledge from demographic prognoses, followed by data on the legal definition, planning and importance of selected social services of homes for dementia and Alzheimer's special care and respite. The aim of this work is to show the perspective of social service providers, namely how they perceive the increase in service capacities. The main objective was to map out the process of accessing homes for dementia and Alzheimer's special care and respites in residential form. In the research, two sub-objectives were defined, namely the identification of limits for capacity building of homes for dementia and Alzheimer's special care and relief services. Using the questioning method and semi-structured interview techniques, are the limits identified, which social services providers must face today and, on the other hand, the limits that appear to be restrictive in the future horizon, according to social service providers. Based on the research has been found that the most problematic factors concern personnel and financial services. In addition, limits were identified in cooperation with the Pilsen region. The results of this work are evidence of individual systemic discrepancies, which are evident both at national and regional level. That is why they pay attention to work about possible solutions that reflect the very importance of this topic. The results obtained can serve as a reflection in the planning of social services at the regional level, the professional and lay public, or as a proof of the status of social services in this territory.

ADAMOVÁ, Tereza
The aim of the thesis has been to propose a model relief services facility for senior citizens in the region Trhové Sviny on the basis of results of an analysis of the region{\crq}s potential and needs. The current offer of services for seniors has been identified, including the possible necessity of extending this offer by facilities providing relief services. The non-governmental organisation Borůvka, Borovany providing relief services to families with handicapped children would welcome an expansion of relief services and therefore it is likely that the project will be implemented in co-operation with this non-governmental organisation. In the theoretical part, the target group of the model facility is described first. Good knowledge of the recipients of the service {--} in this case senior citizens {--} is a basic prerequisite for creating adequate services. Furthermore, social services that are suitable for seniors are described in this part, with a special focus on relief services. The history of relief services has been mentioned, including their models, forms and the contents of these services. The family and the senior are also described here. The practical part describes the current offer of services for seniors in the region Trhové Sviny. A SWOT analysis for the proposed facility has been processed in this part. Furthermore, the characteristics of the model facility and its operation are described in detail in the practical part so that the facility could be created. This part contains the details of the project{\crq}s aim, sphere of activity, characteristics of the target group and specific description of individual services, methods and forms of work in the facility, staffing, possible sources of financing and expected expenses and the technical solution of the entire project. This thesis should serve as a manual for the implementing the new relief services facility, which should be created in the future in co-operation with the non-governmental organisation Borůvka, Borovany. Moreover, this thesis provides a complex overview of relief services in general and it may serve as full information source for the general public.
