Intervention Summary

Six Core Strategies To Prevent Conflict and Violence: Reducing the Use of Seclusion and Restraint (6CS) is a clinical model designed for use by institutions providing mental health treatment to children and adults admitted to inpatient or residential settings. The 6CS program works to change the way care is provided in these settings by focusing on the prevention of conflict and violence, the reduction in use of seclusion and restraint, the implementation of informed care principles, and the fullest possible inclusion of the client in his or her care.
