AnnotationMany of us take for granted our right of freedom of movement. However, some people living in nursing or residential homes do not always have this opportunity, and rules may restrict them. This pamphlet considers examples of restraint or restriction: safety; minimising disability; movement around the home; use of drugs and medication; supervision and observation; and risk-taking.
