Medical Board Issues Statement on the Ability of PAs to Order Restraints and
Seclusion
February, 2008
The Ohio State Medical Board recently issued a statement on the ability of
physician assistants ("PA") to order the restraint and seclusion of patients.
The statement is helpful given that both the Medicare Conditions of
Participation ("COPs") and The Joint Commission rules on restraint/seclusion
rely heavily on what is permitted by state law.
