title: Introducing generic workers to the care of spinal cord injury.
abstract: The generic worker role extends the HCA role in spinal cord injury care. The development of the generic worker role took place at the Midland's Centre for Spinal Injuries (MCSI) in order to implement a number of government policies. There remains room for improvement, development and audit of the role.
