Additional Information

To use, place the Restraint around the patient's wrist or ankle, and do up the double Hook & Loop Tape. Then secure the webbing around the bed or trolley frame. To stop people from sliding down the bed, secure one wrist near the top of the bed, and the other wrist next to the hip. It may be possible to alternate the arm restrained near the top of the bed. When securing the ankles, wrap the webbing around the end of the bed frame to stop the patient from kicking or sliding up the bed.

If this product is purchased for use in a private home, we require authorisation from a suitable person.

Examples of a suitable person who is able to sign the letter are: Occupational Therapist; Physiotherapist; Clinical Nurse Manager; Registered Nurse; Doctor; or another suitably qualified person. Please return a copy to us when ordering. Note: This letter is not required when we send restraints to aged care facilities or hospitals, because their staff are already trained in their safe use.

Important

Restraints are a prescribed item. Care Facilities such as Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Aged Care Facilities etc., may order this item. For private sales to a family member, written authorisation is needed from a qualified therapist or medical doctor, approving the use of the correct Restraint for the patient's current condition. Remember if the patient's condition changes, then a different type of Restraint may be required. It is necessary to ensure the family are aware of the proper use of Restraints, as these can be dangerous if not used correctly.
