“…When it does appear, it tends to be incidental (Greatbatch et al, 2005;Oborn et al, 2013;Prichard et al, 2014;) or framed as 'other' in relation to the healthcare workforce (Kessler et al, 2012). However, detailed, meaningful and evocative accounts exist (Authors, XXXX; Boyle and Healy, 2003;Charman, 2013;Corman and Melon, 2014;Kyed, 2016;Mahony, 2001;Nurok and Henckes, 2009;Reynolds, 2008;Scott and Tracy, 2007;Seim, 2017;Tangherlini, 2000). This relative neglect is in contrast to research on healthcare professions more generally (Ackroyd and Bolton, 1999;Adams et al 2000; Buchanan et al, 2013;Cooke, 2006), and a voluminous literature on the sociology of uniformed professions (Charman, 2013;Loftus, 2009;Maynard-Moody and Musheno, 2003;Moskos, 2008;Reiner, 1992, and many more).…”
