This thesis analyses the reforms of health and social care in the Czech Republic, focusing on the impacts of the reform measures on providers and consumers of health care. Health reforms are currently very up to date, but have not yet been adequately processed and published. Health care of the modern state which Czech republic undoubtedly is must provide affordable and quality health care to all children and people of the society. There is however a necessary role of the state as the representative of the entire health system and relevant legislation. In this thesis we studied the prepared government reforms. The aim of this work was to understand this difficult area and bring this issue further primarily to medical professionals. The results of the research can serve professionals in health social area and be published in scientific journals. The thesis contains a theoretical and empirical part. In the theoretical part we focused on health care systems after 1989, the need for a new reform, the economic development, the health legislation and we also mentioned problems of the current health care system in the Czech Republic. In more detail, we focused on the amended laws related to the new changes in the healthcare system of the Czech Republic. Regarding the reform measures of the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, we focused on the change in the institutional child care and thus a possible replacement of nurseries foster care. For the empirical part research was chosen qualitative method of semi-structured interview with nurses. The research sample consisted of 20 university educated nurses who work mainly on children's wards in hospitals in Czech Budejovice, Tabor, Czech Krumlov and General University Hospital in Prague. In the thesis we stated six goals and six research questions. First, we wanted to determine nurses opinions on the big planned new health and social reform. Furthermore, we were interested in awareness nurses would planned changes in the health and social sphere with other goals we wanted to see what would nurses would like to change in the health system of the Czech Republic, how well informed Theky are about the changes in health care since 1989, what they know about the problems of institutional care and what their opinion on the possible cancelation of nurseries and they replace ment of institutional care by foster care is. From the research it was shown that the specifics of the health reform were seen by the respondents from different point of views. During the qualitative investigation it was found that the knowledge of university educated nurses regarding the planned health reforms was not fully sufficient. With the year of 2014 crucial changes occurred in the Czech health system. In particular, we do not pay medical fees for inpatient stay (1st. January 2014). By the media discussed many medical fees majority of the respondents was aware of but they didnt know the other reforms. In this thesis we focused on the lack of (un) awareness of nurses of planned the health reforms. Our hope is to convince the wider professional public that basic knowledge of politics in the Czech Republic is a very important issue.
