Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This motion proposes amendments to laws governing nursing homes for those under guardianship, penitentiary facilities, and juvenile justice institutions. It aims to expand the legal possibilities for performing involuntary medical treatments for individuals held in these settings to ensure their health and safety. The changes primarily affect people in detention or specialized care facilities, healthcare providers, and judicial authorities responsible for overseeing medical interventions without a patient's consent.
