Restraint Documentation

HWS Clinical Ops on Apr 8, 2019 2:25:18 PM

Please review included education regarding restraint documentation:

Restraint orders must be renewed by the end of the calendar day (2359).This prevents restraining without an order while awaiting a new order.

Safety/Rights/Dignity status is documented with the other restraint component every 2 hours with the attestation that is was done 3 times per hour. Done now is used to document observation in real time and time stamps just one assessment complete.

Please comment with questions.

Have a great week!
