Technology, and health care is an evolving, and contentiously developing, with the time, which may lead to continuous emerging issues, that may disagree with the ethical considerations in the point view of some groups, cultures, or ethnicity, while others support the same issue and accept it as its, therefore nurses’ key role in making decisions about the use of physical restraint must be understood in terms of their initiation of restraint use and/or by their intimate involvement in the care of restrained patients (Goethals, Casterle, & Gastmans, 2012). Examination of the philosophical literature reveals that there are two broad theories of ethical decision-making, namely, utilitarianism (consequentialism) and deontology (non-consequentialism) (McBrien, 2007). So in this paper both of these point view will be investigated. As it was illustrated earlier in this paper, and based on the evaluation of both opponent, and proponents of restraint, the author of this paper agrees with the opponents of restraint, as it was illustrated that restraint is a very complex issue that underlines many ethical and legal issues and arguments, furthermore the patients autonomy, freedom, and respect of decision making should be considered, moreover as it was illustrated above that restraint has a very serious harm on patient physical and mental health, that in rare situation can lead to death, therefore the following are some recommendations, and considerations that should be illustrated in regard to restraint, that nurses must understand and realize, in order to maintain safety for either themselves or the patients.
