Peninsula Village Q/A thread
nimdA:
Was that determination made objectively, based on factual evidence, or subjectively, based on the instincts of the staff?

--- Quote from: ""Three Springs Waygookin"" ---Ok I was trained in the Cornell Method of Theraputic Crisis Intervention (spelling). First the thing that I do know there is a verbal component.
Very few restraints involving TCI happen so quickly that the verbal component can't be utilized. This verbal component is called verbal de-escalation, and the process is as follows:
You identify the resident is in a crisis situation where he is potentially causing harm to self, others or property of significant value. First you attempt to communicate with him or her.
I never would have attempted a restraint without attempting to resolve the crisis verbally.
This can be a simple series of questions.
1) Are you ok?
2) What can I do to help you?
These questions aren't rocket science, but they are designed to stop the crisis and get the client engaged in a meaningful dialogue. Even the most violent of situations needed some sort of verbal component.
Two kids fighting:
1) Break it up boys.
A kid cutting on himself:
1) Maybe you should set that down? Lets have a talk about this ok?
PeeVee seems to have taken the CTCI method and totally perverted it for their own uses. Seriously... getting up off your bed in no way constitutes a deliberate attempt to run away. Nor should running away immediately result in a restraint.
There is still the verbal component.
1) Stretching your legs?
2) Have to go the bathroom?
3) You ok?
4) Want to talk?
Verbal de-escalation is designed to prevent restraints from even occuring. If my memory serves me correctly TCI was created to minimize the actual number of restraints. Not to be used by a crop of goons to batter someone senseless.
Ok rant over... next question..
What determined you were finished with the STU, and who made that decision?

when there was a restraint there were people running everywhere and sirens going off. Usually by the time the restraint was about to happen the verbal part of it became more abusive almost like they were upsetting girls on purpose to get them restrained.

It did not seem like anything that happened in STU was based on factual evidence. It seemed to be all very random. Based on FACTUAL evidence I should not have been in PV at all.

Based on FACTUAL evidence PV woulden't have existed at all
