These following information should the nurse include when planning a staff education conference about caring for clients with restraints-
1)Restraints should be removed once during a shift to perform passive range-of-motion (ROM) exercises for the client.
3)Restraints require a prescription from the primary health care provider.
Medical restraints are generally used to prevent people with severe physical or mental disorders from harming themselves or others. A major goal of most medical restraints is to prevent injuries due to falls.
Other medical restraints are intended to prevent a harmful behavior, such as hitting people.The patient’s current behavior determines if and when a restraint is needed. A history of violence or a previous fall alone isn’t enough to support using a restraint. The decision must be based on a current thorough medical and psychosocial nursing assessment.
Option 3)not correct because Should be attached to the bed frame not to the side rails.
option -4)Restraints may be used p.r.n. for clients who are confused.Orders for the use of restraints or seclusion must never be written as a standing order or on an as needed basis.
