Cal. Code Regs. tit. 9 § 1110
Nonacute 24-hour mental health care means that level of voluntary or involuntary care that is required to provide mental health services to mentally disordered inmate-patients who are not in need of acute mental health care, but who require general mental health evaluation, diagnostic assessment, treatment, nursing and/or related services, on a 24-hour per day basis in order to achieve stabilization and/or an optimal level of functioning. Such inmate-patients are those who, if in the community, would require the services of a licensed health facility providing 24-hour subacute mental health care. Such facilities include, but are not limited to, skilled nursing facilities with special treatment programs. Subacute has the same meaning as nonacute as defined in this section.
