I know a severely disabled adult with an acquired brain injury.

One of her few pleasures is typing letters in notepad and playing patience on her PC (running windows 10)

She is a vulnerable adult and as such it is unsafe for her to access the internet.

I have tried various methods of trying to block her PC from accessing the net but it seems that every time we visit her the PC has managed to connect to the care home WiFi, I’m not sure if that is down to Windows or ‘helpful’ other residents or staff member.

Is there some way I can permanently block her PC from accessing the net?

Thank you

is there a specific issue  that  has led to  this conclusion ?

has a proper  mental Capacity  Act  assessment been conductied  in this regard?

is there clear and documented  reason for this Deprivation of Liberty ?

or is this just misplaced paternalistic  ableism ?

I was debating whether to say this or not seeing as this is a techie forum 

Very eloquently put too

I posted on the tech forum for technical advice.

I do not intend to discuss in detail the abilities of the person I am trying to assist or the processes in place etc and if I was this tech forum is not the place to do so.
