20.500.12556/RUL-145110 Terapija s pomočjo psov za ljudi z ovirami diplomsko delo Dog assisted therapy for people with special needs S svojim diplomskim delom raziskujem, kako poteka terapija s pomočjo psov v Sloveniji, kakšne so njene prednosti in slabosti, kakšen je potek in kakšen je način dela strokovnih oseb, ki pri njej sodelujejo. Prav tako raziskujem, na katerih področjih terapija s pomočjo psov pomaga ljudem z oviro in kakšna je vloga socialnega dela pri tem procesu. Sprašujem se, kakšno vlogo imajo pri terapiji s pomočjo psov socialni delavci in socialno delo, kako jo doživljajo socialni delavci, ki pri njej sodelujejo. Poleg tega raziskujem učinke, ki jih ima na fizično in duševno zdravje ljudi z oviro – bolj podrobno oseb z motnjo v duševnem razvoju in oseb, ki imajo fizične ovire. Zanima me, kako jo doživljajo in kakšno je njihovo mnenje. V teoretičnem delu pišem o tem, kaj terapija s pomočjo psov sploh je in kaj so njene bistvene značilnosti ter kakšne učinke ima na psihofizično zdravje ljudi z oviro. Dotaknem se tudi terapevtskih psov in njihovih bistvenih značilnosti ter terapevtskih društev, ki delujejo v Sloveniji. V drugem delu teoretičnega uvoda pozornost namenim ljudem z oviro. Na koncu predstavim prihodnost terapije s pomočjo psov v Sloveniji in terapijo s pomočjo psov povežem s socialnim delom. V raziskovalnem delu izvedem intervjuje s petimi strokovnimi delavkami – s tremi socialnimi delavkami in dvema delovnima terapevtkama – ter tremi uporabnicami – z dvema iz VDC Kranj in eno iz URI Soča. Podatke kvalitativno analiziram in predstavim rezultate. V razpravi rezultate povežem z literaturo ter dopišem predloge in sklepe. Z raziskavo sem prišla do zaključka, da so pozitivni učinki vidni v mentalnem zdravju, kognitivnem oziroma izobraževalnem vidiku, telesnem zdravju, govoru in socialnih veščinah. Pes je olajševalni in razbremenilni element terapije, ki poveča motivacijo in zaupanje uporabnikov v njihove občutke. Pri terapiji s pomočjo psov se uporabljajo socialno-delovni pristopi. V Sloveniji je na področju terapije s pomočjo psov še veliko prostora za napredek. Strokovne osebe si želijo spremembe sistema. Na podlagi raziskav ugotavljam, da bi terapija s pomočjo psov lahko postala pomembna socialno-delovna metoda. I my thesis I research how dog-assisted therapy is practiced in Slovenia, what are its advantages and disadvantages, how the process works and what the way of working of the professionals involved in it is. I am exploring how dog-assisted therapy helps people with disabilities and the role of social work in this process. I wonder what role social workers and social work play in dog-assisted therapy, how it is experienced by the social workers involved. In addition, I am researching the effects it has on the physical and mental health of people with disabilities - more specifically people with intellectual disabilities and people who have physical disabilities. I want to know how they experience it and what their opinions are. In the theoretical part, I write about what dog-assisted therapy is, what are its essential features and what effects it has on the psycho-physical health of people with disabilities. I write about therapy dogs and their essential characteristics and describe Slovenian organisations working with therapy dogs. In the second part of the theoretical part, I focus on people with disabilities. Finally, I present the future of dog-assisted therapy in Slovenia and connect dog-assisted therapy to social work. In the research I interviewed five professional workers - three social workers and two occupational therapists - and three people with disabilities - two from VDC Kranj and one from URI-Soča. I qualitatively analyse the data and present the results. In the discussion, I link the results to the literature and add suggestions and conclusions. Through my research I conclude that dog-assisted therapy includes social-work approaches. Positive effects are visible in mental health, cognitive or educational aspects, physical health, speech, and social skills. The dog is a relieving and unburdening element of the therapy, increasing the motivation and confidence of the users in their feelings. There is still much room for progress in the field of dog-assisted therapy in Slovenia. Professionals want to see a change in the system. Based on my research, I believe that dog-assisted therapy could become an important social-work method. terapija s pomočjo živali terapevtski psi motnje v duševnem razvoju fizične ovire socialno delo pozitivni učinki animal-assisted therapy therapy dogs intellectual disabilities physical disabilities social work positive effects true false false [A.
