Due to the higher migration rates, there is more cultural diffusion. The healthe care personnel will be dealing with patients from different cultures more often. This is why it is important to use an appropriate approach and give competent heathcare considering cultural backround of the patients. The goal of this thesis was to map the cultural differences in care for an underage patient and to trend the minority groups that are being cared for by nurses in the children's ward. To achieve the goal of this thesis, there were four specified questions and to achieve the result, there was a threephase trial, specifically qualitative trial supplemented with quantitative method using a questionnaire. The first phase was the pilot poll and a techniquire "snowball slamping" was used. The second phase of the trial consisted of pre-structured interviews with the nurses. The third phase consisted of pre-structured interviews with the parents. On the basis of this trial, it was concluded that the nurses are caring for Romany and Vietnamese minority groups most often. The other most patiens from Ukraine, Russia, Germany, Poland, Muslims and Jehova witnesses. The most common problems that occur during the care are: language barrier, cultural customs, communication and co-operation. Based on the data collected from interviews with nurses and parents, there are specific variations in expectency of care, such as food, daily regime, differences in behavour, communication, reliability to adhere to given rules and consequent care after the hospital stay. There are other different specifics such as rituals and traditions during child labour or at the time of death, celebration of different festivals, fasting and other spiritual needs. Traditions relating to refusal or demand of specific care were also mentioned. Results of this thesis were presented at the 13th Student conference in Pardubice and will be published in a technical journal. |
