    Recently, I have been thinking about the use of restraint chairs in our facility and our role in the Psych Services Division in monitoring or sanctioning their use. Our policy seems to give wide berth in terms of less severe threat of harm -to- immiment life threatening risk  (in both cases- to self as well as others) - But this is not in any course I ever took - so I am interested in what role other mental health staff play in this process in their Detention Facilities.

     Thanks, JJ Larson
