Background:
To date, little attention has been given to the concept of quality of life around human resources employment programmes for staff working with persons with a dual diagnosis.
Method:
This article describes the implementation of quality of life principles to service provision for people with dual diagnosis and its application to staff training.
Results:
This type of experiential training facilitated change in staff's attitude to, and treatment of, the people served.
Conclusion:
Human resources development programmes should be based on the same core quality of life principles and domains that guide service delivery on the individual level.
