Alternatives to Restraint and Seclusion in Mental Health Settings: Questions and Answers from Psychiatric Nurse Experts
(in Medscape Online -- May 3, 2007)

APNA California Chapter would like to draw your attention to a recent article on "Alternatives to Restraint and Seclusion" in Medscape online that is based on an interview with APNA member Lynn Delacy and our Chapter's very own Marlene Nadler-Moodie. We share this with you because it contains excellent and timely information, but also because we want you to know what APNA members, your colleagues, are doing in the real world. It is good for all of us to have nurses' voices heard and their expertise appreciated across the whole country. In fact, Lynn and Marlene have presented as experts internationally, as well.

We hope you will enjoy the article and find it useful. If you are not already a Medscape user, you will have to Register first (which is free and easy) in order to view the article.
