INVOLUNTARY HOLDS: CODE GOLD, & COLD GREEN

==Psychiatric reason==
*5150 (5585 for Peds) only for a '''mental health disorder.''' 
*Voluntary patients usually not placed on a 5150/5585, but can be. 
*Non-psychiatric medical personnel can detain anyone who meets criteria until they can be evaluated by a psychiatrist.

** '''Psychiatrist ONLY INSIDE''' MAIN HOSPITAL BUILDING
** '''Sheriff ANYWHERE OUTSIDE''' MAIN HOSPITAL BUILDING, including rest of hospital grounds
***Sheriff has independent authority to place the 5150 or not

==Medical reason==
*Patients who '''lack capacity''' and are a danger to themselves or others for non-psychiatric reasons. Do not need psych consult to determine capacity when restraining patient for a medical reasons, and psych cannot override decision to restrain a patient for non-psychiatric reasons. DO NOT REFER TO THIS AS A "HOLD" AS THIS MAY LEAD LAW ENFORCEMENT TO BELIEVE THE PATIENT IS ON A 5150. 
*If they try to elope you can detain/restrain, if they become violent or aggressive, call a CODE GOLD (see below). 
*These patients can be held against their will for their own safety no 5150 is required or applies (5150 for psych issues only).
* No specific legal form for restraining medical patients - document reasons in chart. Use '''restraint form''' for restraints. 

==Code GOLD==
*For all patients who become physically aggressive, either for psychiatric or medical reasons.
*They will be placed in '''hard restraints''' by CODE GOLD team

*LASD (Sheriff) responds but is not part of team, only assists if detect or to prevent criminal activity by patient (assault)
*Behavioral Response Team leader (BRT) should ID themselves on arrival and ED physician or nurse in charge of patient should brief them.  
*BRT leader has option of turning over situation to LASD as needed.

==Code GREEN==

**'''Outside''' Hospital Building - LASD makes independent determination to place patient on 5150
