An important reminder to members that the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission is increasing its’ focus on reportable incidents relating to the use of restraints.
If you are an NDIS provider, you are automatically obligated to report every instance of an unauthorised restrictive practice you have become aware of.
Please refer to the NDIS Commission for more details. It is recommended that before you supply a device that could be considered as a restraint, you should ask to view the “behaviour support plan” for the participant that has been developed by an approved NDIS behaviour support practitioner.
