No more research, no more data we know how to createsafe community based supports, you start by not medicalising the issues and focus on listening to people, its about lives not treatment! @LtFCIC @TopligginJulie @adult_autism @PDASociety @richardmills18

Stressed people feeling unsafe in a chaotic environments, frightened and in a constant state of panic, the result is aggression and self harm which leads to being demonised, and of course longer term incarceration. The system IS broken @CarlyJonesMBE @BBCLucyAdams @studio3

#Restraint and #Seclusion are not therapeutic, they retraumatise the already traumatised and that includes staff as well. People need #lowarousal environments with well paid and trained staff and of course control over their lives.

Open and honest is the key
Good workshop about having an open and honest discussion about restrictive practice. Thanks Edwin Jones and David O’Brien @EdwinjonesPBS @obrienphotos @theRRNetwork #RRNConf2021 #RestraintReduction
ALT A quote from David O’Brien: we are trying to deliver value based care in a task orientated system
We had such an informed discussion - great contributions - the Key thing for me is that we should all talk about restraint - it’s impact and how we can reduce it👍🏻
#RRNConf2021 PM breakout rooms interactive discussions with @EdwinjonesPBS & @obrienphotos making participants think of their own experiences of #restrictivepractices & then championing ways to implement & effect change. #MakeSomeNoise #education #MandatoryTraining #RRPToolkit

Rachel Whittaker @DHSCgovuk discusses Seni's Law and why this is crucial. Aji Lewis's son Seni died as a result of restraint in a mental health hospital in 2010. Aji and the other families do not wish for any other family to go through what they have. #RRNConf2021
