This paper contrasts the personal experiences of a man with learning disabilities and autism with staff in two different settings: a long-stay institution for people with learning disabilities, and the community living in a flat supported by staff. These experiences highlight some of the potential personal, professional and ethical conflicts facing staff working in learning disability services. (Publisher abstract)
