How children perceive seniors
KADLECOVÁ, Jaroslava
Abstract In the theoretical part of the thesis, there are explained the basic terms: old-age, senior, infancy, children and age, and later are described psychopathological problems, both physical and psychological. The author aims to focus on the terms of loss and decline, which are usually joined with the old-age. Nevertheless, the emphasis is put on the fact that old-age is not an illness but it is important to adapt to it, eventhough it is a period of serious losses. Later in the theoretical part of this work, the author describes the former and current approach of the society to the old-age, disadvantage of the retired people, their discrimination in the mass media and the consequential fear of the old-age. In the chapter called ``the perception of seniors by their family,`` there are explained the terms nuclear and extended family and the difference in the family´s approach to seniors in the past and nowadays. Then, there are described problems related to the current family, e.g. the lack of physical contact with elder people and the relationship between children and seniors. The chapter ``the relationship between children and grandparents`` deals first with the positive contribution, which is evident in the sufficiency of time, the transfer of traditions, the intervention of the historical background and gained experience, and second also with the negative influence such as boycotting of the parental authority, untrue stylization or the total lack of interest in grandchildren. The chapter ``children´s drawing`` was included in the work because it was later used in the practical part. Children´s drawing makes it easier to express the child´s feelings and their relations to their environment. The author also mentioned other available materials and researches about the same or similar topic. In the practical part, the author researched the artistic expression and verbalisation of the children´ s relationship with seniors. In total, there were interviewed twenty-nine pupils who attend the second and the third class of primary school. Children´s drawings and their answers were examined in a non-standardized questionnaire. The people in the drawings are mostly set into some environment, which is mainly nature. The seniors visible in the drawings are usually passive and they are illustrated with some tipical attributes such as a cane. The questionnaire included open, close and also spectrum questions. The answers are worked up in graphic charts in the appendix no. 2.

Health and social services in carehome for elderly people in Linz Austria
KŘENKOVÁ, Vladimíra
The thesis deals with the level of health and social services provided in a home for the elderly in the town of Linz in Austria and further with the comments on their provision. In the theoretical part, the basic knowledge and assumptions for the provision of care to the elderly are described along with an analysis of important areas of the problematic of aging and old-age as a phenomenon. I described here also the conditions for providing social services in a particular facility. In the empiric part of this thesis, the research result, the set goals, hypotheses and discussion on the theme related to the problematic of my work are worked out. The aim of the thesis was to find out the conditions for providing health and social services in the home for the elderly, to find out satisfaction of the clients in the particular facility and opinions of the facility´s staff on the quality and extent of the care provided to the elderly. In connection with the aim of this thesis, hypotheses concerning satisfaction of the clients with the care of own person have been set. Further on, concerning satisfaction with the offer of social-therapeutic services. The third hypothesis related to the staff´s opinion on social- therapeutic services in the home. The last hypothesis was related to satisfaction of the staff with further education of the staff within the home for the elderly. While the first two hypothesizes that assumed satisfaction of the clients of the home for the elderly were confirmed, the hypothesis setting up the assumption that the home´s staff will evaluate the quality of the social-therapeutic services positively was not confirmed. The last hypothesis that the staff, according to their opinion, has good conditions for further education within the home for the elderly was then also confirmed. I used quantitative research in my thesis. Questionnaires were chosen as the data collection technique. The questionnaires results are then assessed in the text and in the graphs. I think that the goal I have chosen in my thesis was fulfilled, according to my opinion and this thesis can be used as a demonstration of care provided to the elderly abroad. The thesis can be also used as inspirational material for the social care providers for the elderly in this country.

The possibilities of cooperation with family of senior of residental services.
KLÍMOVÁ, Eliška
The main subject of my bachelor{\crq}s paper is the possibilities of cooperation with the family of a senior living in a residential institution. In the theoretical part I defined particular terms. I focused on seniors and their role in society, on the seniors`relationship to their families, and I tried to outline the problems relating to a senior{\crq}s admission to the residential institution. In the practical part I focused on the possibilities of cooperation between the residential institution and the seniors` families by means of quantity research. The study was carried out in the district of Hradec Králové and the research team was made up of the health and social personnel of the selected residential institutions. The results of the research confirm that residential institutions are aware of the fact that although the relations in the institutions can be close to the family connections, the number of people who seniors meet every day is limited. Therefore they try to form optimal conditions for the client to keep on being in touch with his own family, ideally, to involve his family members in the daily life of the institution. For study was determinates the hypothesis, body of hypothesis is: The residential institution consider to involve family members in the daily life of the institution for more useful for comprehensive care for senior than individual contact with family members and senior. This hypothesis was order by study, because most of informants stated in the questionnaire, that for comprehensive care for senior is more useful individual contact with family members and senior.

The theoretical part consists of five chapters, which are engaged first of all in problems affecting elderly people. The first part is completed with the issue of the demographic development of the current society and of age lengthening. Methods of senior care in the past are also mentioned in this work. The present circumstances are presented by kinds of stay facilities. This is completed with a discussion concerning the care in staying facilities. Furthermore, the issue of adaptation and maladaptation is analyzed in detail. Concrete feasible solutions of managing the adaptation of elderly people at accommodation facilities are described, which is considered to be the most important part of this work. The author keeps to the hypotheses that previous knowledge of the environment and satisfied living at old people´s homes are connected with a successful adaptation to these facilities. Also free choice as well as self-determination favours the adaptation.
