"They treat you like a person, they ask you what you want": a grounded theory study of quality paid disability support for adults with acquired neurological disability.

Findings support the rights of people with disability to quality, individualised support, and a need for interventions to better prepare the disability workforce to deliver support in line with the needs and preferences of people with acquired neurological disability. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONTo provide quality support, disability support workers need to recognise the person with disability as an individual and the expert in their support needs and preferences.The quality of paid disability support is primarily determined by the way the person with disability and support worker work together in the dyadic space.Ensuring people with acquired neurological disability have authentic choice over their support arrangements and daily living is critical to facilitate quality support, and in turn help the person with disability to feel in control.
