Event details
Organisational environments are complex systems of people, laws and policies, shaped and sustained by culture.
This year’s conference will highlight aspects of positive cultures that support the reduction of restrictive practices. Sharing evidence-based information and tools, the event will promote effective practice, open discussion, and dialogue. Hear from policy and practice leaders, people with lived experience and academics who will stimulate discussion over two days in Newcastle.
Implementation of any initiative to reduce restrictive practices is determined by shared ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. By exploring latest thinking on all forms of restrictive practice within the context of your organisation, you can learn practical ways to navigate systemic barriers that impact people’s lives and can result in institutional forms of oppression.
The Restraint Reduction Network conference promotes trauma informed and experience-sensitive ways of supporting distress and recovery.
The conference will be of interest to those working in health, social care, education and secure services, including policy and implementation leads.
