Brief Summary: In the initial approach of the study it was considered that the comfort room would be used by all patients with GCT treated in the Functional Rehabilitation Area 1 ARF 1 of the Álava Psychiatric Hospital However with the onset of the covid-19 pandemic the service itself decided to separate the patients into two units in order to reduce positive contacts Consequently the use of the comfort room will only be available for one of the two units which will be considered as the intervention group while the other unit will be considered as the control group It is also important to note that the patients in the intervention group unit have a more severe mental state than those in the control group The control group are older and more psychopathologically stable patients So already from the initial moment of the study they are two populations with different characteristics
Main Objective
To determine the effectiveness of the use of a sensory comfort room in the functional rehabilitation area 1 of the HPA It would be considered effective if mechanical restraints decrease by 5 in the intervention group with respect to the previous year
