physical restraints
Anonymous:
Restraints are to only be used if the child is hurting themselves or someone else.
Let me clarify "many". Two or three times per year HLA trains around 15 staff members in TACT proceedures.

--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---HLA has many of their employees go through a training called TACT that teaches proper physical restraint techniques. Much of the training is focused on how to avoid getting into a restraint through talking. TACT does teach proper holds that are designed to keep the child and the staff safe. If there were a situation that required a restraint (which was rare) one of the people that were trained in TACT prodeedures would be called in.

This is bologna. I have personally witnessed completely untrained staff taking down kids like they were in the WWE. I've seen this done in very, very dangerous ways...

What I wrote about staff being trained in TACT proceedures is absolutely true. I do not discount your experience though. I fully believe that you witnessed staff restrain kids in very inappropriate ways. In fact, I believe that is one of the reasons HLA started having their staff trained to do it appropriately.

Have you contacted Kit Wallace at DHR describing what you witnessed? This is something that she wants to know about.

Nothing in my manual (dated 2005-2006) about restraints.
