Abstract
⺠The implications of seasonal bad weather for health care work are identified as a gap in health services research and policy. ⺠A hermeneutic phenomenology approach is effective in interpreting the experiences of weather among front-line long-term care workers in rural institutions. âºÂ Contradictions between the lived experiences of health care workers coping with bad weather and long-term care policies and practices are revealed.
