enforced treatment for my aunt
hello !
my aunt is 72 years old, and she lives in N.Y.
she is suffering from a mental illness, but she is getting no treatment, because she refuse to get any.
in the past 2 month, her condition decreased, but she
is not threatening anybody, and she can not harm even herself.
her doctor, wants to hospitalize her, against her will.
is that possible ? is there any LAW against it, and what are the condition for voluntarely treatment for patients ?
thank you very much,
Yuval
