The diploma thesis entitled: ?A work with a home hospice care client´s family? focuses on an issue associated with a dying at home. The care for a dying man is in such a case provided by family members with a help of a home hospice. The theoretical part clarifies an area connected with providing of hospice services and amodern concept of the hospice care in the Czech Republic as well as in the world. This chapter´s key is a clarification of an issue of the home hospice care and its characteristics. Further it contains topics: a family, a finality of life, phases of dying according to Kübler- Ross, a palliative care, social work in the hospice care. The aim of the thesis was to map a system of the work with a family caring for a patient in the home hospice care. To work out the diploma thesis I used a strategy of a qualitative research. I applied a method of an oral questioning through a technique of a narrative interview with the caring people. As a complementary method I used a semi-structured interview with a social worker and a nurse of the home hospice. Respondents were chosen among people caring for dying men who are patients of the Tabitha Home hospice in Brno. I realized interviews during the month of February until early April 2012. The interviews took place after a mutual agreement, at respondent´s home or in the home hospice rooms. The interviews with women-home hospice workers were carried out in the hospice rooms. 10 interviews with respondents were realized. Data processing was done by categorizing data. Results show that respondents are satisfied with services of the home hospice and they evaluate them positively. They appreciate an approach, a work of the home hospice staff and their respect for the dying as well as wishes of theirs. A support from the side of the home hospice is provided in material, technical, psychological and also spiritual forms. Despite demands of the care provided by the respondents, they would care for the dying at home again. The diploma thesis has been intended for professionals dealing with the given issue, but also for a lay public who wants to learn more about the home hospice services. The thesis should show benefits of this service.
