The use of one - 11ea5c65_04eb_19c0_a7d6_b1a4ed31647c_TB6093_11 length rail is not considered a restraint; it can be used to assist the patient in getting in and out of bed.Two full-length rails and four 11ea5c65_04eb_19c1_a7d6_bb2a71cfeb34_TB6093_11 -length rails would be considered a restraint.The use of no side rails is not considered a restraint; however,the use of one rail to maneuver in and out of bed may be most beneficial to the patient.
