Seeing the invisible: extracurricular learning processes and learning outcome as experienced by student volunteers accompanying persons in a socially vulnerable situation to healthcare appointments-an ethnographic study.

Becoming a healthcare professional is a complex process, where learning occurs in various ways. This study explores an extracurricular learning approach, called the Social Health Bridge-Building Programme, designed to address health inequities. Student volunteers accompany persons in a socially vulnerable situation to healthcare appointments.

Bridging Inequity Gaps in Healthcare Systems While Educating Future Healthcare Professionals-The Social Health Bridge-Building Programme.

Social inequity in healthcare persists even in countries with universal healthcare. The Social Health Bridge-Building Programme aims to reduce healthcare inequities. This paper provides a detailed description of the programme.

Bridging gaps in health? A qualitative study about bridge-building and social inequity in Danish healthcare.

Attendance to health appointments may pose challenges to patients, especially when living in socially disadvantaged situations, with a fragile network. Inequality in health is increasingly highlighted in Denmark. To enhance social equity in health, a non-governmental organization introduced , where healthcare students volunteer to accompany persons in socially vulnerable situations to health appointments.

Navigating (un)certainty in 'downhill' trajectories: An ethnographic study about rehabilitees' and professionals' experiences of goal-setting in Parkinson's disease rehabilitation.

Objective: To explore rehabilitees' and professionals' experiences of goal-setting in a context of (un)certainty with a progressive neurodegenerative disease and how they navigate this (un)certainty in Parkinson's disease rehabilitation.

Design: A long-term multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork (2019-2020) following 20 rehabilitees and their goals over time and settings. Observation at 30 goal-setting meetings.

Usability of self-reported assessment of work functioning in municipal occupational rehabilitation teams: A qualitative study.

Aims: This study aimed to explore (1) whether self-reported assessment on work-related functioning, workability, return-to-work (RTW) self-efficacy, and expectation was useful in the professionals' assessment of sick-listed workers and could guide referral to interventions and (2) whether self-reporting in addition to "usual practice" could improve the RTW dialog and involvement in case management.

Methods: The qualitative study took place in two municipal job centers in 2021. The assessment was based on the Work Rehabilitation Questionnaire, RTW-Self-efficacy Scale-19, and single items of self-rated health, workability, and RTW expectations.

Moving goals. Goal-work in Parkinson's disease rehabilitation.

Chronic diseases often demand considerable work by patients: they must adhere to medical regimes and engage with social and embodied discontinuities. In Denmark, rehabilitees in Parkinson's disease rehabilitation talk about Parkinson's as their new job. In this article, we introduce as an optical lens to enlarge and explore the micro-social practices that concern a core practice in rehabilitation where professionals and rehabilitees set goals for the future and work toward the goals.

What Are Your Goals? Goal-Setting Logics in Danish Parkinson's Rehabilitation.

Across rehabilitation fields, rehabilitees and professionals meet to set rehabilitation goals. Portrayed as an ordinary, yet foundational practice in rehabilitation, participants often find goal-setting meetings challenging; ideal and real seem to clash. Based on a long-term fieldwork in Danish Parkinson's disease rehabilitation, we explore goal-setting and its rationale to gain insight into why goal-setting qualifies as challenging.
