Residential Care : St Sergius aims to minimise any use of restrictive practices (restraints) and use this practice as a last resort. We will always obtain your consent to use a restraint (unless this is in an emergency for your safety or the safety of others). We do provide a secure section of the home for older persons with dementia who may be at risk if they leave the home alone. At times, psychotropic medication may be considered where a person’s distress cannot be managed with person centred strategies alone. Home and Community Care : St Sergius aims to minimise any use of restrictive practices (restraints) and use this practice as a last resort. There are currently no restrictive practices in use in home and community care.
