Use of restraint beds rises in Dutch hospitals amid concerns over patient safety
NL TimesDespite efforts to reduce the use of restrictive measures in hospitals, the deployment of so-called "tent beds," a form of confinement for patients, has increased across the Netherlands. However, findings from a survey conducted by the NOS Nieuwsuur show a rise in the use of tent beds, which fall into the second-most severe category of restrictive measures. One hospital reported using tent beds only twice in 2023, while another used them for 195 patients. “Hospital care for older patients needs drastic reform,” said dementia care researcher Annette Plantinga, who collaborated with Alzheimer Nederland on a study of patient behavior.
