'When I use the electric wheelchair, I can be myself' - real-life stories about occupational identity construction

CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: Contextual values and exploring experiences, such as possibilities to develop competences and roles, along with encountering social recognition, but also hindering regulations and adversities, influence the development of occupational identities. Findings in this study can contribute to increased understanding, conscious political decisions, as well as a more person-centred approach within healthcare.PMID:35786150 | DOI:10.1080/11038128.2022.2093268
