Narrative research methods with vulnerable people: sharing insights.

CONCLUSION: Narrative research is a fitting methodology for nurses researching the experiences of vulnerable populations. Illness can be disempowering, but recounting stories may help participants with healing, adaptation and coping.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: New knowledge about illness, recovery and nursing care can be generated using a critical approach to analysis. By gaining a deeper understanding of people's experiences of illness, nurse researchers can co-create and share compelling narratives that may create empathy and change.
