Summary
This document by the Restraint Reduction Network offers a framework to support care providers in reducing the use of restrictive practices. Restrictive practices are often a response to behaviours seen by care providers and wider society as ‘behaviours of concern’ or ‘challenging behaviour’. These behaviours can occasionally include wilful acts that have the potential to cause harm, but more often than not, these behaviours are symptoms of distress or frustration and a response to the environment or situation that a person finds themselves in. This document outlines the National Minimum Standards for the content of Restrictive Interventions Reduction Plans in mental health and learning disability settings.
