Current through Vol. 42, No. 4, November 1, 2024

Section 130:14-3-3 - Personal property

(a) Each inpatient may receive, possess, and use all personal property, including clothing, except as otherwise provided in this section. Inpatients are encouraged to leave all valuables at home. However, if an inpatient brings personal property such as jewelry or other items valued at more than $100.00, excluding therapeutic and adaptive equipment items, they will be tagged with the inpatient's C.P.C. number and placed in the fireproof safe in the Finance Office. If the inpatient chooses to maintain items in the inpatient's custody, the Center shall not assume liability for these articles. An inpatient may request items that are valued less than $100.00 be secured in the safe too.

(b) The Center may bar particular kinds of personal property from the Center. A written list of banned items may be obtained from the Center staff.

(c) Authorized staff may limit the operation of subsection (a) above for a specific inpatient regarding specific property if such limitation is essential:

(1) to prevent theft, loss or destruction of property,

(2) to prevent the inpatient from physically harming the inpatient or others,

(3) to achieve a treatment objective if the personal property would interfere with the inpatient's treatment plan, or

(4) to eliminate the introduction of functionally unsafe devices and equipment into the Center.
