Mr. Gary Kiernan:

This is exactly it. We all want environments where staff and residents feel safe. We want patients and residents to be cared for by people who feel safe in their working environment and who have the best possible chance of giving the best possible care. Work environments needs to be safe for everybody but the primary concern needs to be that people's rights are not infringed. There needs to be a mindset change in the way we look at restrictive practices. They have to be only after every other possible alternative has been looked at.
