Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Restraints should never be tied in a knot because the knot may prohibit a quick exit in the event of an emergency requiring evacuation. Instead, use quick-release ties or mechanisms such as buckles. Restraints should never be tied to side rails because injuries may result when they are raised or lowered. They should be tied to a stable part of the bed such as the frame.
