Apologies for cross posting

 

Hello all,

 

I’m wondering if anyone has done any work to support the use of iPads by patients on mental health wards?

 

I’m particularly looking at safety concerns and access to the internet. One area which has caused concern has been ligature risks with chargers. Any guidance or business cases  would be great.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

 

Dan
