Popis: Izhodišča: Paliativna oskrba je celostna oskrba težko bolnega, ki s svojim pristopom izboljšuje kakovost življenja umirajočih. Namen magistrskega dela je izpostaviti pomen paliativne oskrbe v institucionalnem varstvu ter z raziskavo ugotoviti samooceno znanja in odnos zaposlenih do paliativne oskrbe. Raziskovalne metode: Uporabljena je bila kvantitativna metodologija raziskovanja. Instrument za zbiranje podatkov je bil strukturiran vprašalnik. V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 174 zaposlenih iz štirih socialnovarstvenih ustanov. S programom SPSS smo izvedli osnovne deskriptivne analize, razlike med povprečji skupin smo primerjali z Mann-Whitney U testom za neodvisne vzorce. Rezultati: Iz raziskave je razvidno, da se zaposleni zelo pogosto pri delu srečujejo s težko bolnimi in umirajočimi. Pri delu so dovolj samozavestni za izvajanje paliativne oskrbe, kar 56 % anketirancev ocenjuje svoje znanje kot dobro ali zelo dobro. 84 % anketirancev navaja, da pogrešajo možnost 24-urnega dostopa do organizirane paliativne oskrbe oziroma konzultacije s timom paliativne oskrbe. Motivirani so za sprejemanje novih kompetenc in odgovornosti v zvezi s paliativno oskrbo v 87 %. Raziskava prikazuje tudi, da ni statističnih razlik v odnosu do paliativne oskrbe med tistimi, ki so zaposleni v ustanovi s paliativnim timom, in tistimi, ki so zaposleni v ustanovi, ki takega tima nima. Diskusija in zaključek: Raziskava je pokazala, da zaposleni ocenjujejo, da imajo dovolj dobro znanje, ki so ga pridobili v največji meri s pomočjo internih predavanj in prakso. Paliativna oskrba je pomembna tema v procesu izobraževanja zdravstvenih delavcev in sodelavcev, na vseh ravneh izobraževanja in zdravstvenega varstva, zato je potrebno kontinuirano strokovno izobraževanje. Introduction: Palliative care is a holistic care of a seriously ill person, which with its approach improves the quality of life the terminally ill. The purpose of this master's thesis is to highlight the importance of palliative care in institutional care facilities, and to establish self-assessment of the knowledge and attitude of employees towards palliative care through the research. Research methods: Quantitative research methodology was used. The data collection instrument was a structured questionnaire. The survey included 174 employees from four social care institutions. With the SPSS program, we carried out the basic descriptive analyzes, the differences between the averages of the groups were compared with the Mann-Whitney U independent sample test. Results: The research shows that employees often face seriously ill and dying patients. At work, they are sufficiently confident to carry out palliative care, with 56 % of respondents assessing their knowledge as good or very good. 84 % of respondents state that they miss the possibility of 24-hour access to organized palliative care or consultations with the palliative care team. They are motivated to receive new competences and responsibilities related to palliative care in 87 %. The survey also shows that there are no statistical differences in relation to palliative care among those employed in an institution with a palliative team and those employed in an institution that does not have such a team. Discussion and conclusion: The survey showed that employees estimate that they have sufficient knowledge, mostly acquired through internal lectures and practice. Palliative care is an important topic in the process of educating health workers and coworkers at all levels of education and at all levels of health care, therefore continuous professional education is needed.
