“…A number of suggestions for how organizations can improve and enhance service user involvement have also been identified in the literature. These include strategies to improve communication with service users (Centre for Developmental Disability Studies, 2004; Ciulla Timmons & Whitney‐Thomas, 1998), allocate funds and resources specifically to support user participation (Carr, 2004; Mental Health Council of Australia and Craze Lateral Solutions, 2004), and the staff undertaking such processes (Crawford, Rutter, & Thelwall, 2003; Young & Chesson, 2006), families (Centre for Developmental Disability Studies, 2004), a clear purpose for the consultations that are linked to actions (Olsen et al., 1997), and provide feedback to users (Carr, 2004; Crawford et al., 2003; Doel et al., 2007).
