A padded cell - or Personal Safety Room - is a cell in a psychiatric hospital with cushions lining the walls. The padding is an attempt to prevent a patient from hurting themselves by hitting their head (or other bodily parts) on the hard surface of the walls. In most cases, persons are not placed in padded cells voluntarily.
A padded cell is sometimes colloquially known as a "rubber room", seclusion room, time out room, calming room, personal safety room among others.
Description
Most padded cells or "Personal Safety Rooms" are the same size as a single room, about 10 feet from front to back and about 8 feet wide, and are designed for short-term, single occupancy. The walls and floor are covered with padding, which is typically four inches in thickness. The walls are usually covered with cork crumb filled pouches made of strong canvas or leather, which is then covered with rubberized paint. The padded floor is covered in leather and the door to the cell is commonly made of very strong wood or wood reinforced with steel. The door, also padded on the inside, may have an observation port which allows supervising medical staff to have a full, uninterrupted view of the room and its occupant. The door has no knob or handle on the inside, and is typically secured by a strong lock which can only be opened from the outside by authorized personnel.
