Open the restraint straps and place them at either side of the cot while you position the patient on the cot mattress.

Lengthen the restraint straps, buckle them around the patient, and shorten them to tighten.

•

To open the restraint strap, press the red button on the front of the buckle receiver. This allows you to release the buckle

latch plate and pull it out of the receiver.

•

To close the restraint strap, push the latch plate into the receiver until you hear a click.

•

To lengthen the restraint strap, grasp the buckle latch plate, turn it at an angle to the webbing, then pull it out. A hemmed

tab at the end of the webbing prevents the latch plate from coming off of the strap.

•

To shorten the restraint strap, grasp the hemmed tab and pull the webbing back through the latch plate to tighten.

When you buckle a restraint strap around a patient, secure the latch plate and remove any loose webbing from the cot.

Inspect the restraint straps at least once a month (more if used often). Check for a bent or broken receiver or latch plate, or

torn or frayed webbing. Replace any worn or inoperable restraint strap.
