CMS Standards: The use of restraining or seclusion interventions must never act as a barrier to the provision of safe and appropriate care, treatments, and other interventions to meet the needs of the patient.

Security staff may carry weapons as allowed by JMH policy and State law. The use of weapons by security staff is considered as a law enforcement use and not a health care intervention. CMS does not approve the use of weapons by any JMH staff as a means of subduing a patient to place that patient in patient restraint/seclusion. If a weapon is used by security or law enforcement personnel on a person in a hospital to protect people or hospital property from harm, we would expect the situation to be handled as a criminal activity and the perpetrator be turned over to local law enforcement.
