Mental Health Act (Ontario)
text:
The Mental Health Act is an Ontario law that regulates the administration of mental health care in the province. The main purpose of the legislation is to regulate the involuntary admission of people into a psychiatric hospital. Since the changes brought about in 2000 under Bill 68, the Act allows for a community treatment order by the attending physician. This order is intended to provide comprehensive treatment outside of a psychiatric facility.
