Our Restrictive Techniques enable staffs to use their hands to gain release or secure the person exhibiting extreme aggression towards staff or others.

 

Attack seems harsh, and not as person centered. If using attack, perhaps coupling with aggression as well. 

 

At NCI+ (National Crisis Interventions Plus) we require that restrictive techniques be used in the least restrictive and safest manner possible.

 

Restrictive Techniques are emergency techniques of last resort. They are to be used to ensure the safety of persons receiving support and the staff supporting them.

 

These techniques should never be used as consequences or punishment. Restrictive techniques are only to be used to ensure the safety of the person or others.
