@polarbear1927 Um, some elders are bed ridden..

[Racingirl911]

Let me guess...um...a school project, perhaps?

[polarbear1927]

isn't it abuse making a person stay in bed all day unless they want to? That does not look like much of a life for an elder. Grandma was always running around with us ( her family) She would have never been able to lay in bed all day since she was extremely active. That would be torture. Elders should not be forced to lay in bed unless they want to and they should not wear diapers unless it is absolutely necessary

Was this video done at college

Restraint is always a touchy subject in any line of work, that why the training is a must so as long as you are following proper proceedures then you are usually covered.

When one is dealing with vulnerable and incapacitated service users, virrtually all intervention could be termed 'abuse' because it is non-consensual.

You missed one! For those elderly who cannot feed themselves and must be fed by caregivers. If they eat too slowly, most times they just take the tray away and don't bother trying to get the food into them.

The fact is, any one of ANY age can abuse any one of ANY age.

none of this was ever legal, but now a days it is.

now a days if you're under the age of 17 or over the age of 65, you can do what ever you want because no one cares about ageism any more.
