The Doorway Webbing Barrier is made from a bright orange webbing. It is designed to be a visual reminder for residents not to pass. The advantage of the Doorway Webbing Barrier is that the Hook & Loop tape will easily detach if a patient walks into it or if they fall on it, the webbing should not cause any injury, compared to a metal or plastic chain.
Key Features
- Visual reminder for residents
- Hook & Loop tape for safety
- Maximum usable length of approximately 120cm / 47"
- Can be used in various areas such as storerooms and nurses' stations
Additional Information
Sometimes a patient will walk down a corridor and enter another person's room without an invitation. If the door is kept closed it is difficult for the staff to keep an eye on the person in the room, so it is necessary to leave the door open. The occupant of the room should have some privacy without other people wandering into their room, so the Doorway Webbing Barrier is a safe way to indicate the wanderer should not enter.
The wandering patient may need to be told not to remove the Doorway Webbing Barrier, and hopefully they will remember and respect other people's privacy.
It is important to tell staff that this item is to allow residents to have privacy in their rooms. It is not to restrict them from leaving a room, as then it could be considered to be a restraint, so restraint authorisation will be needed.
