Contribution of participation and resilience to quality of life among persons living with stroke in Sweden: a qualitative study

CONCLUSION: Participants described a tension between adapting and accepting life after stroke. Resilience was a useful framework, highlighting the contribution of inner, social and societal resources to recovery and quality of life, both directly and as enhanced through increased participation. Important factors for adaptation are meaningful values in life, individual strategies for adaptation and support from both social relationship and the society.PMID:36062839 | DOI:10.1080/17482631.2022.2119676
