A seriously disabled man in Tasmania had a lounge put on top of him by support workers who were trying to restrain him. He was also regularly locked outside in a courtyard and was once pushed into a pool in an effort to calm him down. Theo Langmaid, 26, acquired a brain injury after contracting meningitis as a four-month-old and requires around-the-clock care. While in the care of North West Residential Support Services his parents became concerned about how he was being treated.
