We are asking all of our organisation members to commit to writing an action plan based on the Six Core Strategies (download the infographic here) These six strategies were developed through extensive literature reviews and dialogues with experts who have successfully reduced the use of seclusion and restraint in a variety of settings. They have been adopted internationally as best practice for organisations who wish to reduce their use of restraint. You can review what you have done so far, and identify your top 3 priority actions to be completed in the next 2 years.
You can also watch the webinar below about the Six Core Strategies that will support you to develop an action plan.

Once you have submitted your action plan, we will review it and let you know when your membership has been approved. Upon approval, you will receive a Restraint Reduction Network Organisation Member logo™ and have access to all Organisation Member benefits. Furthermore, your top three priorities (only) will be published on our website (we will not share contact info).
