Abstract

When the quality of care in hospital is lacking, what options are available to people who need high levels of support? Taking control of care when poor quality support was likely to result in injury or further damage to me. As a person with disability I was able to exercise my voice and choice and was allowed to make a decision that knowing my own situation provided a better outcome overall. But should it be a matter of luck?
