Svéprávnost klientů pohledem sociálních pracovníků / The Legal Capacity of Clients Looking for Social Workers

The main objective of this work was to find out how social workers perceive a significant legislative change, which relates to the client's legal capacity. The secondary objective was to determine what role social workers have in the process of "client self-management" and how these clients, respectively, their guardians work together. The research was based on conducting interviews with social workers within the South Bohemian Region who are working with clients with limited self-esteem. The conversations were subsequently overwritten and encoded. Depending on the individual codes, the categories were created, which were then shown for a better overview of graphically using diagrams. The opinion of social workers on the legislative change was positive, but this change is still not fully implemented. Decisions on people without them still prevail. The supportive measures to replace the limitations in the lawfulness are virtually absent in practice. It is difficult to look for a solution to this situation, as the creation of new legislation lasted for many years, so it can be assumed that the change in practice will also be evident after several years. The role of a social worker is not very significant according to research. As far as the course of the proceedings is concerned, the social worker does not interfere with it, but rather acts as a client support or a guardian's guardian. When working with clients with limited authority, an individual approach to each individual is important as well as cooperation with the family, in most cases the family member acts as a guardian. Good cooperation between the social worker and the guardian is related to the welfare of the client. The most important and still neglected fact remains that society must accept individuals with disabilities as well as their rights to freedom, independent decision-making and ultimately a happy life.
