Or. Admin. Code § 859-050-0075 - Use of Restraints
(1) The
Board prefers to have patients appear at hearings without physical restraints.
If, in the judgment of the patient's physician, the patient might need
restraining, the Board prefers to have staff attending the hearing with the
patient rather than to use physical restraints. However, the final decision on
use of restraints lies with the physician.
(2) Any attorney objecting to the patient
appearing with restraints at the hearing may raise the issue and ask for
testimony from the physician or request a continuance of that hearing until the
patient can appear safely without restraints.
