Handle With Care-PRT

[funinsun]

Hi all,

I was wondering if you all had heard of/used the "Handle With Care" method for physically managing aggressive/threatening patients. I was told by the staff training us that it is pretty common to use across the US..I have been using CPI up until this facility and hadn't heard of it..

This website doesn't go into hold specifics but gives an idea of where and when it was first created..

I know there is no nice way really to take a threatening/aggressive patient into control, but just wondering what you all think of this method!!

Thanks everyone..
