"The topic of physical intervention is still hugely important: the abuse of such interventions features all too regularly in national scandals, and people with intellectual disabilities and other individuals with complex needs are still dying in the UK as a result of the use of inappropriate restraint. Through rigorous analysis of current policies and practices, careful examination of physical interventions and abusive practices, and clear discussion of objectives and needs for the future, this publication offers a major overview of key developments and current best practice in the field." - BOOK JACKET

This gave me a lot of information I was seeking in response to the new restraint policies and looking for alternatives to restrictive practices.
