Abstract
En 中文
Disability remains a largely invisible component of diversity within the nursing profession due to a lack of comprehensive data collection and ongoing systemic ableism. This article explores the multifaceted experiences of nurses with disabilities through an intersectional lens, illustrating how disability intersects with other marginalized identities to create unique and compounded barriers. Drawing on the authors' personal narratives, one with an apparent physical disability and the other with a nonapparent, dynamic disability, the paper highlights how disabled nurses navigate intersectional discrimination, exclusion, and invisibility in both educational and professional settings. Emphasizing that disability is a natural part of human diversity, this article calls for nurses and professional nursing organizations to reimagine equity, diversity, inclusivity, and belonging to include the experiences of people with disabilities and to ensure access in nursing.
