Conversation analysts can you help me out with a response to reviewers? Plz share any evidence that training developed from CA can (a)change healthcare professional behaviours (b)change health outcomes PLUS (c) any references of ‘good practice’ identified through CA being absent from guidance. 🙏

How about approaching this from the other side- how do we incentivise employers to make the adjustments necessary to help people with disabilities into work. Rather than suggesting that if sick people just tried a bit harder they could not be sick, which is what this looks like
