we
always code 2 rails in use but NOT as restraints - our bed controls are on them
(built in) and most use the rails to turn in bed so they are assistive
devices
-----Original Message-----Hi Everyone I am looking for an answer quickly since the state surveyors are in the building. If side rails are required on a specialty bed (full rails times 2) but are not used as a restraint do you code this on the MDS under section P for device/restraints. Thank You
