Nursing care of client with Alzheimer's disease in Alzheimercentrum.

The main objective of the work was to map the provided nursing care of a client with Alzheimer's disease in the Alzheimer Center. In connection with this goal, one research question has been identified: "What kind of care is provided by the individual nursing staff to the Alzheimer's clients?" The empirical part of the bachelor thesis was elaborated by the method of a qualitative research survey, which was carried out by the technique of unstructured observation of the nursing staff in providing nursing care to Alzheimer's patients in the Alzheimer Center. The observation itself was focused on how the selected nurse takes care of the client during the shift, especially in the provision of hygiene care, diet, rehabilitation, health care, and during communication with the client. The data obtained were processed by an open coding technique, in which six categories were created for individual areas of nursing care: staff reporting, hygiene care, nutrition, rehabilitation, client communication and health care. The research sample included nurse, medical assistants and social services workers. Based on the results of the research, we can describe the care provided as complex and individual. Emphasis is placed on the activation and support of patients' self-sufficiency. The clients are not only provided with basic nursing care, but they are specialized care, which is provided to each client according to their needs and health condition. Main aims of the facility are: to use the leisure time of clients and to establish a friendly relationship between the caregiver and the supervised person. The work is designed to bring a comprehensive view of nursing care provided to Alzheimer's clients. The results can serve as teaching material
