The subject of liability for damage to client caused during performance of social services in residential establishments becomes increasingly relevant. As opposed to the liability for damage caused during performance of health services, this subject is rather underappreciated by general members of the legal profession. For this reason RILSA produced a study „Legal aspects of liability for damage caused to a client while providing a social-health care in residential establishment for social services“ that aimed to find out the level of knowledge among the providers of residential social services in the area of liability for damage. To find out the level of legal knowledge of providers of residential social services, a question form was distributed randomly in the Czech Republic. We found out, that providers of residential social services know about the existence of liability for damage and that they are insured. But in the case of significant incurred damage or in the case of more damages within one year the insurance coverage limit might not be sufficient. However, the knowledge of legal terms of liability for damage eventually caused to their clients is limited and current way of obtaining the knowledge by individual study is insufficient., Daniela Bruthansová, Věra Jeřábková, and Literatura
Cieľ: Cieľom medzinárodnej prierezovej štúdie bolo zhodnotiť úroveň subjektívnej pohody českých a slovenských sestier a jej vzťah k dĺţke klinickej praxe a ich uvaţovaniu o odchode z pracoviska, profesie sestry a do zahraničia. Metodika: Výskumný súbor tvorilo 1055 sestier pracujúcich v lôţkových zariadeniach. Subjektívnu pohodu sestier sme hodnotili prostredníctvom Indexu osobnej pohody a Škály emocionálnej, habituálnej subjektívnej pohody. Rozdiely v subjektívnej pohode sme zisťovali jednorozmernou analýzou rozptylu (ANOVA), na zistenie závislosti medzi premennými sme pouţili Pearsonov korelačný koeficient. Výsledky: České sestry častejšie preţívali pozitívne a menej často negatívne emócie (afektívny komponent subjektívnej pohody) v porovnaní so slovenskými sestrami. Ţivotná spokojnosť (kognitívny komponent subjektívnej pohody) bola na úrovni 60 – 70 % maxima stupnice, typického pre "nezápadné" krajiny (65,02; SD 15,80 - české sestry; 63,80; SD 16,43 - slovenské sestry). Štatisticky významné rozdiely v ţivotnej spokojnosti medzi uvedenými skupinami sestier sa nepreukázali. Subjektívna pohoda sestier sa negatívne spájala rokmi praxe, ako aj úvahami o odchode z pracoviska, z ošetrovateľskej profesie a odchode pracovať do zahraničia. U slovenských sestier sa preukázali silnejšie vzťahy medzi jednotlivými komponentmi subjektívnej pohody a ich uvaţovaním o odchode. Záver: Výsledky štúdie reflektujú zvyšujúcu sa pracovnú neistotu sestier, ktorú zaznamenávame v oboch krajinách v posledných rokoch. Ďalší výskum by sa mal zameriavať na identifikáciu ďalších faktorov, predovšetkým z oblasti pracovných podmienok, ktoré môţu významne vplývať na subjektívnu pohodu sestier., Aim: The aim of this international cross-sectional survey was to investigate subjective well-being of Czech and Slovak nurses and its relationship with years of experience and leaving intentions. Methods: The sample for study consisted of 1055 hospital staff nurses from Czech and Slovak Republics. The data were collected using a set of questionnaires that included the Positive Affect Scale, the Negative Affect Scale, and Personal Wellbeing Index. For determining the associations and correlations between variables, the parametric Pearson correlations were used. For group comparisons one way ANOVA procedure was performed. Results: Czech nurses experienced more positive affect and less negative affect than Slovak nurses. We did not find the statistical significant difference in life satisfaction (a cognitive component of subjective well-being) between Czech and Slovak nurses. Life satisfaction has been within the range of 60–70% SM found for Western populations (65.02; SD 15.80 - Czech nurses; 63.80; 16.43 - Slovak nurses). Subjective well-being correlated negatively with years of experience and leaving intentions. The stronger relationship between subjective well-being and leaving intentions was in Slovak nurses. Conclusions: The results of the study reflect an increased job insecurity of Czech and Slovak nurses. Future research should focus on investigation of other factors of subjective well-being, mainly from the area of work conditions., Elena Gurková, Katarína Žiaková, Mária Sováriová Soósová, Silvie Haroková, Radka Šerfelová, Slávka Mrosková, and Literatura
