This thesis topic is preventing burnout among social workers in Ceske Budejovice. Currently, the burnout syndrome is struck by the large number of field social workers due to demand of social work and solving difficult situations with clients frequently. I have chosen this topic because it is very big problem nowadays. I also wanted to find out whether social field workers from the Czech Budejovice suffer from this phenomenon, and if so, whether they know the prevention. The work consists of practical and theoretical part. The theoretical part involves six main chapters. The first chapter describes the concept of burnout syndrome, which includes acute and chronic syndrome. The second chapter includes symptoms of burnout syndrome, where I describe physical, emotional, mental exhaustion and stress. The third chapter deals with the stages of burnout, which I describe more in detail. The fourth chapter focuses on risk groups of people that are the most often affected by burnout syndrome. In this chapter I characterize the concept of personality and describe the symptoms of burnout within the personality. In the fifth chapter I mention preventing burnout syndrome, furthermore there I describe the basic methods and prevention techniques, which include social networking, preventive measures by the employee as well as by the employer and last but not the least I mention supervision in that chapter. The last, sixth chapter, deals with the field social work in the context of the law on social services, basic principles, methods and procedures of social work are described. I focus on the differences between the field social work and provided social services. In the practical part two goals are set. First one is to determine whether burnout syndrome occurs among field social workers in Ceske Budejovice. The second one is what methods and prevention techniques are used by social workers in Ceske Budejovice in order to prevent burnout syndrome. Based on the objectives set, I chose two research questions. These research questions deal with burnout of social workers in the Ceske Budejovice and furthermore the most common methods and techniques for the prevention of Social Workers in the Czech Budejovice the symptoms of burnout used. In order to realize the practical part I used qualitative research methodology. Data were obtained using a semi-structured interview. The sample consisted of 7 social workers from Ceske Budejovice. I used the technique of purposive sampling research sample. The survey results showed that 4 field workers out of 7 have been experiencing symptoms of burnout syndrome. The most common methods and techniques to prevent burnout of field social workers are devoting their hobbies, social support from family, friends, colleagues, heads of organizations or supervisor. Furthermore, to separate work life from personal life and to set firm boundaries of work, adequate rest and of course supervision. My thesis could be benefit to the general public. Could be beneficial for both social workers, who have been experiencing symptoms of burnout syndrome and want to learn more, as well as for social workers who have met with burnout and want to know the possible methods and techniques in order to prevent burnout syndrome.

This thesis deals with the stressful situations in the profession of the nursing staff. The occupation of the nurse belongs to the most demanding ones. In this occupation, the nurse is permanently affected by many stressors of different types. She faces death, the suffering, dying and incurably ill people very often. She is there in times of pain, agony and suffering. Personal encounters with these difficult situations require highly professional approach but most of all, they present immense work stress for the nurse. The theory section describes mainly the stressful situations that are the most common and most difficult in the work of the nursing staff. The next part of the theory section describes possible consequences of the stressful situations and methods of managing them including the support by the management. This thesis has two objectives. The first objective was to map the manners used by the nursing personnel to cope with the stressful situations brought by their profession. The second objective was to find out the difference in the coping with the stressful situations between the hospital staff and hospice staff. The research section of this thesis contains the quantitative research done using the technique of an anonymous questionnaire with 20 question prepared by ourselves. The questionnaire was distributed to the nursing staff of all categories in the hospital and hospice care. It was completed by 269 respondents in total. The data was statistically processed using systems Microsoft Excel 2010 and Software R, version 3.0.2 (Chi-squared test, Fisher´s exact test, and Wilcoxon test). We determined four hypotheses. H1: Manners of coping with the stressful situations depend on the qualification of the nursing staff reached; not confirmed. H2: Manners of coping with the stressful situations are influenced by the length of practice of the staff; not confirmed. H3: Manners of coping with the stressful situations differ between the hospital staff and hospice staff; confirmed. H4: The nursing staff views their own mental hygiene as more efficient than the support from the management concerning the coping with the stressful situations; confirmed. The research results show that the nursing staff faces the stressful situations very often. They see as the heaviest stress the care of the suffering and aggressive patient, conflicts with the patient´s family, conflicts at work and workload. The manners of coping with the work burden which proved as the best for them are relax, rest and sleep. There were no differences proved in the manners of coping with the stress among respective members of the nursing team. Nevertheless, the coping with the work burden of the nursing staff in the hospital and hospice care is different. A minimum of the respondents notices any support during the stressful situations from the employer. On the other hand, certain support by the management could be viewed in the form of trainings, supervision or contribution to a "recovery" which are granted to the respondents from the employer according to their answers. However, the respondents would prefer, as the support by the management, the increase in pay or more days off. The respondents view as insufficient the preparation of the graduates for the future stressful situations in their profession, as well. They would recommend mainly various trainings dealing with the stress and its management. A good solution to alleviate the work burden of the nursing staff and quality enhancement of the services provided could be investments into better work conditions, both in terms of sufficient human and material resources and the very organization of the work processes.

The interest in the burnout syndrome issue has been increasing in recent years, particularly in the context of increasing psychosocial and work related stress in the sector of health and social services. The care of patients with chronic pain requires specific approach from the professional, psychological and ethical points of view from pain therapists. Unless a doctor is able to tolerate work related stress or to use mitigating strategies, the burnout syndrome threat occurs. The aim of the present thesis was to find out what the subjective approach to the burnout syndrome issue is among selected algiatry experts including its prevention. Qualitative research was conducted from January to February 2012 in the form of semi structured interview. The research sample consisted of respondents from 10 workplaces involved in chronic pain therapy (5 private, 5 in hospitals). The data were complemented with quantitative questionnaire research (Burnout Syndrome Symptom Inventory ? ?BSSI?) conducted from November 2011 to January 2012 to obtain a deeper insight into the content analyses of the semi structured interviews. The quantitative research sample consisted of 47 doctors from pain management workplaces from the whole Czech Republic. The demographic data were processed by means of basic descriptive statistics. Qualitative interviews were transcribed to text form and consequently analyzed. Score points of the monitored levels of the ?BSSI? questionnaire were then calculated and differences between pair variables (gender, age category, type of practice) tested. The mixed research showed statistically higher rate (p < 0.05) of tendency to burnout syndrome in pain therapists working at hospitals compared to their colleagues from private facilities. No significant differences were found in terms of age, sex, number of children in a family and number of treated patients. The most frequent symptoms of the syndrome in the respondents were irritation, lack of empathy, tiredness or loss of work enthusiasm. The most frequent protective factors are humour, breaks, discussion with colleagues, sport activities, hobbies or spending free time with families.

A tese tem como objetivo geral analisar a ocorrência da síndrome de burnout e suas representações sociais entre profissionais de saúde de um hospital público universitário do Rio de Janeiro. Caracteriza-se como um estudo quanti-qualitativo, descritivo, transversal, a partir de uma amostra intencional, totalizando 101 participantes. Os instrumentos de coleta de dados foram um questionário contendo a técnica de evocações livres, a escala de caracterização do burnout (ECB) e um roteiro de entrevista semiestruturada. A análise de dados se deu por meio do uso do software EVOC 2005 e da construção do quadro de quatro casas para as evocações livres; o software SPSS 20 e análises estatísticas descritivas e inferenciais para a ECB; e a análise de conteúdo temático categorial para as entrevistas semidiretivas. Os resultados apontam que os profissionais de saúde possuem uma representação social da síndrome de burnout alicerçada em duas dimensões, uma física e outra psicológica; observa-se a prevalência de conteúdos predominantemente negativos nessa representação, sobretudo, em relação ao contexto de trabalho no hospital. Também mostram a existência da representação social da síndrome de burnout estruturada a partir dos termos estresse e cansaço que fazem parte do provável núcleo central dessa representação. Observou-se que há ocorrência da síndrome de burnout entre enfermeiros e médicos do campo cirúrgico do hospital e que tal ocorrência apresenta relação com as variáveis psicossociais e sóciodemográficas. Releva-se a importância dessas variáveis, assinalando o seu papel regulador na ocorrência e desenvolvimento da síndrome. Conclui-se destacando as condições de trabalho para a construção das representações nas profissões de saúde e para a determinação da síndrome de burnout, sobretudo no campo cirúrgico. Os resultados poderão contribuir para a compreensão do campo teórico da síndrome de burnout, especialmente, no que se refere à sua determinação e ao seu desenvolvimento, lançando luz para o seu diagnóstico e sua prevenção / The doctoral thesis aims to analyze the occurrence of burnout syndrome and its social representations among health professionals in a public university hospital in Rio de Janeiro. It is characterized as quantitative-qualitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study, departing from a intentional sample, in a total of 101 individuals. The data collection instruments were a questionnaire using free evocation of words technique, the burnout characterization scale (ECB) and the semi-structured interview guide. The data analysis occurred through the EVOC 2005 software and the construction of the four-digit chart for free evocations of words. The SPSS 20 software, and descriptive and inferential statistical analyzes to ECB; and theme/category-based content analysis to semi-structured interview. The results indicate that health professionals have a rooted social representation of burnout syndrome in two dimensions, one physical and other psychological; the prevalence of predominantly negative contents in this representation, was observed especially in relation to the hospital work context. They also point to the existence of social representation of burnout syndrome structured from the terms stress and fatigue that are part of the likely central nucleus of this representation. It was observed that there is occurrence of burnout among nurses and doctors of the hospital's surgical body and that such an occurrence is correlated with the psychosocial and sociodemographic variable. It emphasizes the importance these variables, pointing out its regulatory role in the occurrence and development of the syndrome. As a conclusion the working conditions for the construction of representations in the health professions and to determine the burnout syndrome, especially in the surgical body was highlighted. The results may contribute to the understanding of the theoretical field of burnout, especially with regard to its determination and its development, contributing for diagnosis and prevention
