Who can approve the use of chemical restraints in a nursing home?

  1. A physician

  2. The head nurse

  3. The nursing home administrator

  4. A family member

The correct answer is: A physician

The correct answer is A because only a physician has the appropriate training and knowledge to determine whether the use of chemical restraints is necessary for a particular patient. B and C may have some authority in the nursing home, but they do not have the same medical expertise as a physician. Additionally, it is important to note that the use of chemical restraints should never be approved by a family member, as their emotional connection to the patient could potentially cloud their judgment.
