This book presents an evidence-based framework for replacing
harmful, restrictive behavior management practices with safe and
effective alternatives. The first half summarizes the concept and
history of restraint and seclusion in mental health applications
used with impaired elders, children with intellectual disabilities,
and psychiatric patients. Subsequent chapters provide robust data
and make the case for behavior management interventions that are
less restrictive without compromising the safety of the patients,
staff, or others. This volume presents the necessary steps toward
the gradual elimination of restraint-based strategies and advocates
for practices based in client rights and ethical values. Topics
featured in this volume include: The epidemiology of restraints in
mental health practice. Ethical and legal aspects of restraint and
seclusion. Current uses of restraint and seclusion. Applied
behavior analysis with general characteristics and interventions.
The evidence for organizational interventions. Other approaches to
non-restrictive behavior management. Reducing Restraint and
Restrictive Behavior Management Practices is a must-have resource
for researchers, clinicians and practitioners, and graduate
students in the fields of developmental psychology, behavioral
therapy, social work, psychiatry, and geriatrics.
