Restraint should only be used as a last resort and in accordance with facility policy, using appropriate equipment and techniques. Using towels and tape as restraints is not an appropriate or safe method, as they can easily become loose or cause injury to the person. It is important to refuse and explain the reasons why to ensure the safety and well-being of the person.
