15HD  Matters to be set out in behaviour support plans—if restrictive practice used
  If a restrictive practice in relation to a care recipient is used in relation to the care recipient, the behaviour support plan for the care recipient must set out the following matters:
 (a) the restrictive practice and how it was used, including the following:
 (i) when it began to be used;
 (ii) the duration of each use;
 (iii) the frequency of its use;
 (iv) the outcome of its use and whether the intended outcome was achieved;
 (v) whether its use was in accordance with the informed consent set out under paragraph 15HC(g);
 (b) if, under the plan, the restrictive practice is to be used only on an as‑needed basis in response to particular behaviour, or in particular circumstances:
 (i) the care recipient's behaviours of concern that led to the use of the restrictive practice; and
 (ii) the actions (if any) taken leading up to the use of the restrictive practice, including any alternative strategies that were used before the restrictive practice was used;
 (c) the details of the persons involved in the use of the restrictive practice;
 (d) a description of any engagement with external support services (for example, dementia support specialists) in relation to the use of the restrictive practice;
 (e) details of the monitoring of the use of the restrictive practice as required by the plan;
 (f) the outcome of the review of the use of the restrictive practice as required by the plan.
Note 1: For paragraphs (e) and (f), see paragraphs 15HC(d) and (e) for the requirements for a behaviour support plan for a care recipient to require monitoring and review of the use of a restrictive practice in relation to the care recipient.
Note 2: If the use of a restrictive practice in relation to a care recipient is necessary in an emergency, other matters must also be documented in the behaviour support plan for the care recipient (see section 15GB).
