Unless I didn't find something that someone else found on the legal side of things, please post it I would like to read it

So using a pad or liner for heavy wetters is ok then, as long as it's checked regularly and not left in all night. I mean I assume that all of those issues in the first two comments can still occurs in single briefs too if they aren't checked enough. So those aren't good defense topics for double briefing. I understand that it's not nice or morally right to leave a resident wet for too long, if you can change them and aren't busy then yes of course. But for the sake of bed strips and saving a roll on a stiff patient or some that are in the fetal position, a liner or pad inside the brief is acceptable. Cause there's nothing legally saying no it's unacceptable. It's not neglect or abuse (when changed appropriately)

So I've been hearing a lot about this lately and I have searched and searched to find state regulations or codes or laws or anything that says in black and white "double briefing is illegal".... And I'm still empty handed. It's been a fighting subject at my current place of employment and I'm just curious, is it illegal to put two briefs on residents that urinate excessively? or is it just morally wrong...
