Evaluation of the use of a sensory room on an adolescent inpatient unit and its impact on restraint and seclusion prevention
ConclusionsThe use of a sensory room intervention substantially decreased patients’ distress and reduced R/S use and aggressive behaviors. Improvements were also found in patient and staff members’ sense of safety. No differences in the quality of staff–patient relationships were found based on sensory room use.
