British Columbia updates guidelines for when doctors can provide involuntary treatment for mental health and substance use.
British Columbia has issued new guidance for doctors on when involuntary treatment can be used for adults with substance use and mental health disorders.
The guidance clarifies that involuntary care is not for controlling risk-taking behavior unrelated to mental impairment.
Instead, it aims to help clinicians identify when such intervention is necessary to save lives and treat impairments.
This guidance does not change the province's Mental Health Act but seeks to improve care for vulnerable patients without altering their rights.
