Mental health trusts restrain patients 'every 10 minutes' Mental health trusts in England are restraining patients on average every 10 minutes, figures have revealed.
They show the number of incidents of restraint has increased each year since 2013.
Former health minister Norman Lamb said use of force was "endemic" in many units.
The Department of Health said it was working with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) to ensure the use of restraint is minimised. BBC News
