Statute overview
About this statute
This provision says the law governs the placement and stay of people with mental disorders in specialized psychiatric facilities or psychiatric services in general hospitals. General hospitals authorized to run psychiatry services must create a section for placement and treatment, and psychiatric establishments must meet standards set by grand-ducal regulation. A person may be placed, and the establishment’s director may admit them, only on a written placement request from one of the listed persons or authorities. This provision requires a recent medical certificate for a placement request, limits who may issue it, allows exceptional admission by the director in urgent danger cases, and sets transfer and supervision rules. Police must take into custody persons whose conduct seriously endangers people or property, notify the competent authority immediately, and certain police officers may place them in a safe place for up to 12 hours.
