Abstract
Satisfying the needs of the patient is primarily associated with the quality of life. In addition, it is obvious that due to age, illness or difficult life situation, the issue of the provision of needs is of importance especially for those patients who are in some way limited in this respect.
In addition, the infectious patient is limited by the need to make specific regimes, often with insulating regimes and barrier nursing care, which makes it impossible for them to move around and carry out normal daily tasks in the usual way. The purpose of this lecture is to address human needs not only from the point of view of their fulfillment and possible barriers to the care of these patients, but also from the question of how infectious patients perceive those measures, whether they regard them as limiting and undignified, or that this process of care of the infected patient, perceived by patients as a violation of personal autonomy.
On the one hand, the patient and the intention to fulfill his wishes and expectations, to meet the needs of the patient, on the other hand, are aware of the risk that infectious diseases do not lose their meaning.
