  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Restraint use in aged care facilities for individuals with dementia is a complex issue, often influenced by perceived duty of care.
  • Misinformation frequently hinders efforts to eliminate the use of physical and chemical restraints.

Observation:

  • This paper details a case study within an aged care facility focused on removing restraints.
  • The intervention involved an education and consultation approach targeting staff and the family of a resident with dementia.

Findings:

  • The education and consultation process aimed to address the underlying reasons for restraint use.
  • This approach facilitated a shift away from physical and chemical restraints in the care of an older person with a dementing illness.
