Biography

Jessica Vollertsen is a Lecturer at Linköping University, where her research focuses on individuals experiencing post-stroke fatigue (PSF) and the challenges they face in establishing a sustainable everyday life, which includes work. She is involved in clinical placement coordination and presents on topics related to sustainable everyday life for persons with stroke fatigue. Her thesis examines the experiences of working-age individuals dealing with post-stroke fatigue and the obstacles they encounter in creating a sustainable lifestyle that incorporates work. Vollertsen emphasizes the importance of returning to work after a stroke for improving health, quality of life, autonomy, and perceived participation, while highlighting potential health deteriorations over time and the reduced ability to partake in occupational roles. Her work aims to bridge the gap between rehabilitation goals and the realities faced by patients in the workforce.
