Surveillance: A restrictive practice and human rights issue - Explainer from RRN and BIHR

The use of surveillance in care settings is a complex topic. In addition to any benefits, it is a restrictive practice and can be an unjustified blanket restriction which infringes on people’s human rights.

In partnership with the BIHR – The British Institute of Human Rights the RRN- Restraint Reduction Network has produced resources aimed at helping individuals and organisations take a rights-based approach to the use of surveillance. These resources include a one page explainer which can be found clicking the button below.
