Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information to SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer, Room 7-1044, One Choke Cherry Road, Rockville, MD 20857. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The control number for this project is 0930-0271.

Definitions


Seclusion:



The involuntary confinement of a client alone in a room or an area where the client is physically prevented from leaving which includes but is not limited to: manually or electronically locked doors; one-way doors (i.e., doors constructed so that when closed and unlocked they may not be opened from the inside); the presence of staff proximal to the room preventing exit or the threat of consequences if the client leaves the room.


Each occurrence of a seclusion must be reported as a unique event. In some cases, clients may provide “permission” to be secluded either at the time of seclusion or at some previous time. The seclusion event must be reported even if such “permission” has been obtained.


It is understood that there are other forms of behavior management systems such as quiet rooms, voluntary time outs and room restrictions. These types of events should not be reported if the client is free to leave the room without consequence.


Other exclusions include:

  • quarantine due to infectious disease;

  • restraints while not in seclusion: That is, a seclusion event should not be reported if an individual is prevented from leaving a room secondary to being restrained. In this case, a restraint event should be reported.


Restraint:



Any manual or physical or mechanical device, material, or equipment that immobilizes or reduces the ability of a client to move his or her arms, legs, body, or head freely.


Each occurrence of a restraint must be reported as a unique event. In some cases, clients may provide “permission” to be restrained either at the time restraints are applied or at some previous time. The restraint event must be reported even if such “permission” has been obtained.


The following are valid restraint subtypes:


  • Mechanical, Non-ambulatory Restraint: Mechanical restraint of an individual in which ambulation is not possible, examples include 4-point restraints and body nets


  • Mechanical, Ambulatory Restraint: Mechanical restraint of an individual in which ambulation is possible. Examples include wrist-to-waist restraints. Restraints used for security purposes during transport of a client out of the building or off the premises to receive therapeutic services or to participate in activities directly related to the client’s illness (such as court proceedings or appointments necessary to acquire human services) are not to be reported. Also, restraint devices employed for medical purposes (Geri-chair, posey, etc..) or as personal protective devices (helmets, bed rails, etc..) should not be reported. In some cases, devices (e.g. mittens) may be employed for either medical or behavioral purposes. Use of such devices should be reported when the restraining device restricts the movement of the whole or a portion of a client’s body for the purpose of preventing intentional harm. Use of such devices should be considered for medical purposes and should not be reported when the device is used as an assistive or adaptive device to restrict the movement of the whole or a portion of a client’s body for the purpose of preventing unintentional harm or used for promoting or maintaining normative body functions.


  • Manual Restraint: A method in which the individual is restrained by the physical force of facility staff.


Exclusions include:

  • restraints used for security purposes during transport of a client out of the building or off the premises to receive therapeutic services or to participate in activities directly related to the client’s illness (such as court proceedings or appointments necessary to acquire human services);

  • devices such as orthopedically prescribed devices, surgical dressings or bandages, protective helmets;

  • other methods that involve the physical holding of a client for the purpose of conducting routine physical examinations or tests;

  • other methods that protect a client from falling out of bed;

  • other methods that permit the client to participate in activities without the risk of physical harm (does not include a physical escort);

  • seclusion while not in restraints.


Documentation of the reason for the use of the restraint must clearly indicate whether these exclusions apply.

Worksheet 2: Debriefing

DEBRIEFING 1: IMMEDIATE POST-EVENT DEBRIEFING



Description: An immediate post-event debriefing that is done onsite after each seclusion or restraint event and is led by the senior on-site supervisor who immediately responds to the unit or area. The goals of the post-event debriefing are: to assure that everyone is safe; to ensure that documentation is sufficient to be helpful in later analysis; to briefly check in with involved staff, consumers, and witnesses to the event to gather information; to try and return the milieu to pre-event status; to identify potential needs for policy and procedure revisions; and to assure that the consumer in restraint is safe and being monitored appropriately.


Method: Review a minimum of five reports randomly selected from the measurement month. If less than five reports are available, review all for the month and indicate the number reviewed in the comment section. Using the Debriefing Review Tool, count the number of debriefings that contain each item. Items ask for whether a particular aspect of the debriefing was addressed in the report. For further instructions on report selection and aspects of debriefing, refer to the ISRRI Reviewers’ Guide.

ATTACHMENT C

Seclusion and Restraint Event Data Matrix

Measure Lists, Descriptions, and Examples



Definitions


Seclusion:



The involuntary confinement of a client alone in a room or an area where the client is physically prevented from leaving which includes but is not limited to: manually or electronically locked doors; one-way doors (i.e., doors constructed so that when closed and unlocked they may not be opened from the inside); the presence of staff proximal to the room preventing exit or the threat of consequences if the client leaves the room.


Each occurrence of a seclusion must be reported as a unique event. In some cases, clients may provide “permission” to be secluded either at the time of seclusion or at some previous time. The seclusion event must be reported even if such “permission” has been obtained.


It is understood that there are other forms of behavior management systems such as quiet rooms, voluntary time outs and room restrictions. These types of events should not be reported if the client is free to leave the room without consequence.


Other exclusions include:

  • quarantine due to infectious disease;

  • restraints while not in seclusion: That is, a seclusion event should not be reported if an individual is prevented from leaving a room secondary to being restrained. In this case, a restraint event should be reported.


Restraint:



Any manual or physical or mechanical device, material, or equipment that immobilizes or reduces the ability of a client to move his or her arms, legs, body, or head freely.


Each occurrence of a restraint must be reported as a unique event. In some cases, clients may provide “permission” to be restrained either at the time restraints are applied or at some previous time. The restraint event must be reported even if such “permission” has been obtained.


The following are valid restraint subtypes:


  • Mechanical, Non-ambulatory Restraint: Mechanical restraint of an individual in which ambulation is not possible, examples include 4-point restraints and body nets


  • Mechanical, Ambulatory Restraint: Mechanical restraint of an individual in which ambulation is possible. Examples include wrist-to-waist restraints. Restraints used for security purposes during transport of a client out of the building or off the premises to receive therapeutic services or to participate in activities directly related to the client’s illness (such as court proceedings or appointments necessary to acquire human services) are not to be reported. Also, restraint devices employed for medical purposes (Geri-chair, posey, etc..) or as personal protective devices (helmets, bed rails, etc..) should not be reported. In some cases, devices (e.g. mittens) may be employed for either medical or behavioral purposes. Use of such devices should be reported when the restraining device restricts the movement of the whole or a portion of a client’s body for the purpose of preventing intentional harm. Use of such devices should be considered for medical purposes and should not be reported when the device is used as an assistive or adaptive device to restrict the movement of the whole or a portion of a client’s body for the purpose of preventing unintentional harm or used for promoting or maintaining normative body functions.


  • Manual Restraint: A method in which the individual is restrained by the physical force of facility staff.


Exclusions include:

  • restraints used for security purposes during transport of a client out of the building or off the premises to receive therapeutic services or to participate in activities directly related to the client’s illness (such as court proceedings or appointments necessary to acquire human services);

  • devices such as orthopedically prescribed devices, surgical dressings or bandages, protective helmets;

  • other methods that involve the physical holding of a client for the purpose of conducting routine physical examinations or tests;

  • other methods that protect a client from falling out of bed;

  • other methods that permit the client to participate in activities without the risk of physical harm (does not include a physical escort);

  • seclusion while not in restraints.


Documentation of the reason for the use of the restraint must clearly indicate whether these exclusions apply.


Injury:





An injury event is reported when a client or staff suffers physical harm or damage as a consequence of a seclusion or restraint event and requiring medical treatment more intensive than “minor first aid” including “medical intervention” or “hospitalization” (see definitions below).


Client injury events (CIEs) occur during incidents in which one or more clients are injured. A separate CIE should be reported for each client injured during any given incident. If multiple clients are injured in a single incident, multiple CIEs should be reported. If a single client is involved in multiple incidents resulting in injury to that client, multiple CIEs should be reported. However, if a given

client is involved in a single incident which results in multiple injuries to that client, only one CIE should be reported.


Staff injury events (SIEs) occur during incidents in which one or more staff are

injured. A separate SIE should be reported for each staff injured during any given incident. If multiple staff are injured in a single incident, multiple SIEs should be reported. The use of diagnostic procedures to determine the severity of an injury does not constitute treatment.


Exclusions: Injury events should NOT be reported for clients or staff whose injuries:

  • did not result from a seclusion or restraint event; or

  • required “no treatment” or “minor first aid” only (see definitions below)

  • resulted in death; in this case the injury should be reported as a death.


  • No Treatment”: The injury received does not require first aid, medical intervention, or hospitalization; the injury received by a client (e.g., a bruised leg) may be examined by a clinician but no treatment is applied to the injury. The use of diagnostic procedures to determine the severity of an injury does not constitute treatment.


  • Minor First Aid”: The injury received is of minor severity and requires the administration of minor first aid. This is meant to include treatments such as the application of Band-Aids, cleaning of abrasions, application of ice packs for minor bruises, and use of over-the-counter medications such as antibiotic creams, aspirin and acetaminophen.


  • Medical Intervention Required”: The injury received is severe enough to require the treatment of the client by a licensed medical doctor, osteopath, podiatrist, dentist, physician’s assistant, or nurse practitioner, but the treatment required is not serious enough to warrant or require hospitalization; further, the treatment received may be provided within the facility or provided outside the facility where it may range from treatment at a doctor’s private office through treatment at the emergency room of a general acute care hospital.


  • Hospitalization Required”: The injury received is so severe that it requires medical intervention and treatment as well as care of the injured client at a general acute care medical ward within the facility or at a general acute care hospital outside the facility; regardless of the length of stay, this severity level requires that the injured client be formally admitted as an inpatient to the hospital and assigned to a bed on a unit outside of the emergency room.


Death::



An injury received as a consequence of a seclusion or restraint event that was so severe that it resulted in - or complications from the injury lead to - the termination of the life of the injured client.


STAT IM Medication::



A STAT (Emergency) Intra-Muscular (IM) medication event should be reported each time a client is given a STAT dose of a neuroleptic medication administered intramuscularly.
