Subject: Official Information request - Request for restraint policy and
the use of mechanical restraints in all services

 

Dear Hawke's Bay District Health Board,

 

Can you please provide all policy documents relating to restraint
practices at Hawke's Bay DHB?

 

Are there instances in the last year (June 2016 to June 2017) of the use
of mechanical restraints? (i.e. strapping arms to bed) this is also
referred to as physical restraint.

Can you please provide this data for both physical and mental health
services and identify the service associated with this data?

 

This data should be recorded in a Restraint Register and specify the type
of restraint used (ie wrist strap) and the start and finish times of each
individual mechanical/physical restraint. Obviously the presentation of
this data should be anonymised for the protection of privacy.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Health Sector Workers Network
