The usage of supervision in medical facilities

There are basic concepts relating to the presented topic, such as supervision and health care institutions, explained in the theoretical part of this master thesis. In its practical part, there are results of the research undertaken by means of a questionnaire survey and amended by two half-standardized interviews in the end. The questionnaires were sent to health care institutions to the regions of Zlin and South Bohemia. Interviews were done with managers of health care institutions, on in the region of Zlin and the other in the region of South Bohemia. The target of research was to find out if supervisions are really provided in health care institutions in the regions of Zlin and South Bohemia. The partial target of research was to map occurrence of supervision used individual types of health care institutions (in the two mentioned region of Czech Republic). There are two hypotheses stated in the thesis. Hypothesis no. 1 is determined in the following way: ?Supervision is more often used in the region of Zlin than in the region of South Bohemia?. Hypothesis no. 2 is: ?Supervision is more often is ordered by a manager and regarded as a duty than prevention of a ?burnout? by nurses. Neither of the hypotheses is proved. I will be very pleased if the thesis provokes a few people at least to think about issues of supervision in health care institutions. Further, the thesis can serve as study material for students studying the field of health services. And last but not least, the thesis could serve as an initial impulse to perform other researches in the field of supervision in health care institutions in other regions
