How to Fix a Hospital Restraint Bed With 4 Point Restraint

1. Put on latex gloves and place bed sheet on the hospital bed, at the foot of the bed lift mattress and tie end of the sheets in the back of the mattress in a knot, this is done so that once the bed is in use the sheet stays on the bed. Make sure the bed is lying in a flat position.
2. Take the straps on the blue restraint and lap them through and around the second hole on the frame of the bed where the arms rail rest. Pull the restraint strap down until it is at the edge of the bed.

   Wrap the restraint around the bottom end of the bedrail and put the end of the restraint strap through the mouth of the metal clasp. Pull the straps through until the restraint is tight and lock it by pressing the mouth of the metal clasp close until you hear a click sound. Do this with all four of the restraints on the opposite side of the bed (red with red and blue with blue).
4. Check and make sure the restraints are in proper location with the blue at the middle of the bed where a patient arms will rest and the red colored restraints at the foot of the bed where the legs will be.
5. Check to make sure all restraints on the bed are secure before allowing the bed for use.
