Covid-19 and Physical Restraint Risk Assessment

Covid-19 & Physical Restraint Risk Assessment

I have been getting a lot of questions lately such as:

“What do we do is we have to physically restrain someone and they deliberately cough or spit at us?”

Therefore, I have put a risk assessment together to help anyone who needs it, which you can access here – restraintandcovid19.nfps.info/optin-page-ra-2020

Please watch the video which explains everything and if you feel that it is of value to anyone please feel free to share it with whoever you wish.
