§ 6153s. Carrying weapons inside the institution

It is hereby prohibited to carry weapons inside any mental healthcare institution. This prohibition excludes Commonwealth police officers and armed security officers in extraordinary public safety conditions, as well as in methadone treatment centers and their mobile or in-house units. If no extraordinary public safety issues should arise so as to warrant the carrying of weapons inside a mental healthcare institution, Commonwealth police officers and other security officers shall be under the obligation to surrender their weapons to the administrator of the institution, who shall see to their safekeeping and return the same to such officers, once they have completed their business within the institution.
