Establishes court-ordered intensive treatment services for patients with chronic resistance to mental health treatment.
Arizona HB2706 amends the state's mental health laws to allow courts to order intensive treatment services for patients who are chronically resistant to treatment. This includes housing, transportation, and specified treatment services. The court must approve a written intensive treatment services plan, which can be modified at compliance hearings. Noncompliance may result in inpatient treatment and detention. The treatment agency must provide notice of compliance hearings to the patient and their legal representatives.
