Cnsent is required fr all nn-emergent restraint use. Alberta Health Services is cmmitted t the principle f restraint as a last resrt. Restraint shall be used nly when ther strategies have been deemed ineffective r inapprpriate in the circumstances. All reasnable effrts shall be made t identify and apply a nn-restraint strategy. When restraint is indicated the least restrictive restraint suitable t achieve the intended utcme shall be used. Restrained patients shall be mnitred with sufficient frequency t minimize risk f any ptential harm which varies depending n the patient and care area but at a minimum is Alberta Health Services (AHS) PAGE: 1 OF 9
2 required every eight (8) hurs f cntinuus restraint particularly while sleeping (see relevant prcedure fr each care area fr mre specifics). Once restraints are applied they shall be remved at the earliest and safest pprtunity. Restraints shall be used in a manner that allws fr quick release in an emergency situatin (e.g., cdes). Staff caring fr patients at risk fr the use f restraints (r all patients with ptential r real behaviral challenges) shall receive educatin n apprpriate restraint use and applicatin. Prgram areas shall identify training requirements fr staff. Restraint shall be used nly in circumstances where: There is an immediate threat t the safety f patients, caregivers, r thers (e.g., physical assault, self-harm) and immediate actin is necessary t prevent serius bdily harm t the persn r t anther persn; Emergency treatments must be prvided, including but nt limited t resuscitatin, emergency assessment and transprt; An apprved treatment regimen r care plan must be fllwed because the patient is unable t cperate in the care setting (e.g., ICU care, severe cgnitive impairment); The patient s behaviur is severely disruptive and/r interferes with the prvisin f care t ther patients; and/r It is necessary as part f the patient s treatment plan fr patient safety, such as lap belts n wheelchairs.

This plicy des nt apply t restraint by nn-ahs Crrectins Authrities fr purpses f custdy, detentin, and public safety reasns. ELEMENTS 1. Cnsent 1.1 Cnsent is nt required in emergency situatins, including but nt limited t: a) risk f serius bdily harm t patient r thers; b) immediate threat t safety; r Alberta Health Services (AHS) PAGE: 2 OF 9

Infrmed cnsent (in accrdance with Cnsent t Treatment/Prcedure(s) plicy suite) and the principle f chice are applied in all pssible circumstances. Early interventin may be able t cntrl difficult behaviur befre the situatin escalates and a patient may be able t participate and chse less restrictive ptins. b) Maximum benefits and minimum harm: (i) (ii) (iii) Restrictin f mvement limits the patient s liberty and is thus ptentially harmful. The safety benefits f restraints shall be weighed against the harm they cause prir t making a decisin regarding the restraint. Patients shall be carefully bserved in rder t immediately address harm. Patient respnse t restraint shall be tracked, dcumented and reviewed t assist further decisin making. c) Minimal restrictin: When restraints are deemed t be necessary, the least restrictive restraint shall be used, fr the least amunt f time. This must be balanced with ensuring safety and respecting liberty. As restraint may take away the patient s ability t care fr themselves, staff may need t take ver the respnsibilities that have been taken away frm the patient.
