The Moral Order of Supported Care offers an insight into the everyday ways in which intellectual disability is contextually dependent on the relationship between client and support worker. Using Sacks" (1974) Membership Categorisation Analysis, this book exposes the practical reasoning used during a meeting between six support workers and an allied-health professional as they develop a behavioural management plan for Jane, a woman with a severe intellectual and communication impairment. The first of the three analytical chapters looks at the formulation of client choice; the second examines Jane"s given-voice; while the third, explores the assignment of the pronoun "it" to Jane. The book concludes with a discussion of the findings of the investigation as they apply to ethnomethodology literature and the Social Model of Disability (Oliver, 1996). The Moral Order of Supported Care is readable, humane and interesting: three bonuses that are not always found in the same place at the same time. But above all, The Moral Order of Supported Care gives the novice and expert a like the opportunity to visit a world so often hidden from view.
