Diversity in cancer care: exploring social categories in encounters between healthcare professionals and breast cancer patients.

Background: The burden of breast cancer is a key challenge for women's health globally. Rehabilitation needs and strategies for living with long-term consequences of breast cancer and its treatment cannot be isolated from the social contexts of patients, including relationships with relatives and healthcare professionals.

Aim: This study explores how healthcare professionals' categorisations engage with breast cancer patients' social identities in encounters about rehabilitation before hospital discharge.

A three-year national follow-up study on the development of community-level cancer rehabilitation in Denmark.

This follow-up study explores development in these services in Danish municipalities, focusing on availability, utilisation and organisation of services, including existing opportunities and challenges. A national survey among all 98 Danish municipalities was conducted in 2013 (baseline) and repeated in 2016 (follow-up).
