Physical Restraint Program

The “Physical Restraint Training Program” is a hands-on, 2-3 hour program covering such topics as:

• Patient positioning and packaging
• Pressure point control
• Joint locks
• Creating muscle confusion
• Use of restraint devices
• Documentation of the restrained patient

Many agencies have either implemented or are looking into protocols to deal with the physical restraint of patients.  This program will provide students with not only hands-on techniques for proper restraint, but also the knowledge need to  back up their actions legally, morally, and ethically.
