Physical Restraints
A physical restraint is any device that restricts the resident from moving freely or prevents normal access to their body. Some examples of physical restraints include special types of vests, chairs with lap trays, lap belts and enclosed walkers.
These findings are publically reported by the US Department of Health and Human Services on Nursing Home Compare. http://www.medicare.gov
