I recently got a job at a nursing home. There was a resident who was out of control, hitting, biting, kicking, howling, and unsteady on her feet. I gave her ativan IM, the correct dose. In order to give the shot safely, I had help holding her still for 10 seconds. The med worked and she was fine. But, I and everyone else involved were fired for physcial restraint. I have never heard of anything like that before. Was I really wrong?
