Universal Citation: 55 PA Code ยง 14.6
Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 12, March 23, 2024
This chapter in no way prohibits the concept of discipline, thoughtfully and properly applied for a patient/resident. An approved form of discipline described, planned and documented in the treatment programs, such as those outlined in therapy programs and behavior shaping programs, is not considered abuse. Self-discipline is a necessary skill that people must learn, and is one which responsible employes cannot ignore.
