Restrictive practices have traditionally been used in aged care to manage behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia.
The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission (Commission) is committed to minimising risks to recipients of aged care (Care Recipients) and ensuring they are treated with dignity and respect.
The use of restrictive practices in Care Recipients must always be a last resort, in the least restrictive form possible, and for the shortest time.
Building on the information covered in the previous module (Aged care and restrictive practices: Definitions, principles and ethics), this module focuses on responsibilities in relation to the use of restrictive practices, behaviour support plans, and concludes with a discussion of alternative strategies to consider in managing behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia.
We recommend that prior to undertaking this module, participants complete part 1 of this series: Aged care and restrictive practices: Definitions, principles and ethics.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
