The Journal of Humanities in Rehabilitation is an online journal that aims to provide a forum for publication, discussion, narrative expression and dialogue regarding the human experience of patients, families and healthcare providers involved in therapy and rehabilitation. The journal strives to publish original articles and pieces of work in many genres related to various disciplines of rehabilitation and the patient/caregiver experience with illness and disability. Submissions may be in many forms, including a perspectives piece, personal narrative, poetry, video or photo essay, or an original research article. We are also looking for reviews of films or books that may be relevant to this topic, or a personal reflection that describes an interaction and provides a learning experience between a healthcare provider and an individual living with disabilities. All submissions published in the journal will undergo peer review based on initial editor screening.
We hope that you will reflect on your experiences in the humanities of rehabilitation and consider submitting a piece to our journal. If you have an idea of an event or experience, but are unsure of how it might fit into our format, please feel free to contact us to discuss.
