Summary

Existing law generally prescribes the extent of the powers and duties of guardians and conservators and limits those powers by prohibiting the involuntary commitment of a ward or conservatee to a mental health treatment facility, except as specified. Existing law requires the Director of State Hospitals to adopt and issue regulations defining "mental health treatment facility" for those purposes. This bill would delete the requirement that the director adopt and issue regulations defining "mental health treatment facility" for those purposes.
