This will be one of the only online courses in the UK which has reducing restrictive practice as the focus. We will be providing a summary of the burgeoning evidence about restrictive practice in mental health; the background, political landscape, clinical factors, guidelines, and the available evidence about ways to reduce restrictive practice in psychiatry. The national experts in psychiatric intensive care will be responsible for providing much of the teaching content. This is a five-week course with 3 hours of learning per week. The course will be assessed by peer feedback and learners will be guided through this process. There will be discussion boards which will enable networking and sharing of knowledge, and good practice across the sector.
