Description
|
Funds proposed legislation that requires a minimum 24-hour period for a temporary detention order (TDO) and extends the current 48-hour maximum TDO to 72 hours for adults with mental illness. The purpose of the legislation is to ensure that individuals subjected to a TDO are given a sufficient minimum period of time to be properly evaluated and the most appropriate treatment option is determined. In addition, extending the TDO provides more time for individuals to stabilize. Extending the length of a TDO may result in more post-TDO outpatient treatment versus inpatient hospitalizations. |
