This page is under construction
Intention
The intention of this page is to review measures of violence in psychiatic institutions particularly those using Nonviolent Communication.
Methodology
Published and unpublished data was collected from a variety of sources (see tables). The data collected consisted of no of seclusion incidents, no of hours patients were secluded, no of restraint incidents, no of hours patients were restrained and no of staff injuries over a period of time. The data was then "normalized" by expressing the data per 1000 patient days. When the number of patient days during the observation period was not available, the unit capacity times length of data collection period was used as an estimate of patient days.
In some cases only combined seclusion plus restraint data was available so this was compared with the calculated seclusion plus restraint data for other institutions.
A "blank" entry in a results table indicates that the data was unavailable
