This volume explores different models of regulating the use of
restrictive practices in health care and disability settings. The
authors examine the legislation, policies, inspection, enforcement
and accreditation of the use of practices such as physical,
mechanical and chemical restraint. They also explore the importance
of factors such as organisational culture and staff training to the
effective implementation of regulatory regimes. In doing so, the
collection provides a solid evidence base for both the development
and implementation of effective approaches to restrictive practices
that focus on their reduction and, ultimately, their elimination
across health care sectors. Divided into five parts, the volume
covers new ground in multiple respects. First, it addresses the use
of restrictive practices across mental health, disability and aged
care settings, creating opportunities for new insights and
interdisciplinary conversations across traditionally siloed
sectors. Second, it includes contributions from research academics,
clinicians, regulators and mental health consumers, offering a rich
and comprehensive picture of existing regulatory regimes and
options for designing and implementing regulatory approaches that
address the failings of current systems. Finally, it incorporates
comparative perspectives from Australia, New Zealand, the
Netherlands, Germany and England. The book is an invaluable
resource for regulators, policymakers, lawyers, clinicians,
consumer advocates and academics grappling with the use and
regulation of restrictive practices in mental health, disability
and aged care contexts.
