| Annotation | Is it really liberating for service users to directly employ their carers? And how does it feel for personal assistants (PAs) to provide intimate care? The author comments on examples of the unsatisfactory nature of such employment arrangements and the lack of protection both for services users and those directly employed by them. (RH). |
