Abstract
TOPIC: Survivorship is a relevant concept to evaluate as technology is allowing people to survive previously terminal conditions. The act of surviving a life-altering event can result in survivorship by altering continuity of identity. PURPOSE: This paper analyzes the concept of survivorship through the use of Walker and Avant's model of concept analysis. SOURCES OF INFORMATION: A comprehensive literature review and bibliographic search resulted in numerous sources available for analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The recognition of commonalities among all types of survivors could have important implications for support groups and rehabilitation therapies.
