Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This amendment proposes changes to the laws governing nursing homes for those placed at the disposal of the state, penitentiary institutions, and juvenile justice centers. The goal is to expand the legal possibilities for administering involuntary medical treatment to patients within these settings. The changes primarily affect detainees and patients in judicial and penitentiary institutions who may require medical care but are unable or unwilling to consent to treatment.
