What information should I expect to see in the written notice?

The written notice should include:

   (a) The date and time of the incident;

   (b) The name and job title of the individual who administered the restraint or isolation;

   (c) A description of the activity that led to the restraint or isolation;

   (d) The type of restraint or isolation used on the student, including how long it lasted;

   (e) Whether the student or staff was physically injured during the restraint or isolation incident and any medical care provided; and

   (f) Any recommendations for changing the nature or amount of resources available to the student and staff members in order to avoid similar incidents.

If you get a written notice, but it does not include these details, you can ask the school to provide a more complete notice.
