Verify that the facility maintains a separate, cumulative log of all restraint and seclusions
that occur in the facility. Each log entry should be dated and timed and include
information concerning the interventions that were used and the ultimate outcome of any
associated restraint and seclusion.
Note any instances where resident record review indicated that an restraint or seclusion
occurred but was not entered into the log.
