Section 433A.380 - Conditional release: No liability of State; restoration of rights; notice to court, district attorney and legal guardian1. Any person involuntarily admitted by a court may be conditionally released from a public or private mental health facility when, in the judgment of the medical director of the facility: (a) The conditional release is in the best interest of the person, will provide the least restrictive treatment that is appropriate for the person and will not be detrimental to the public welfare;(b) A community treatment program, social services agency, mobile crisis team or multi-disciplinary team has agreed to provide case management, support and supervision to the person to ensure his or her compliance with the conditions of the release; and(c) The person qualifies to receive case management, support and supervision from the community treatment program, social services agency, mobile crisis team or multi-disciplinary team.2. The medical director of the facility or the medical director's designee shall prescribe the period for which the conditional release is effective. The period must not extend beyond the last day of the court-ordered period of admission pursuant to NRS 433A.310. If the person has a legal guardian, the facility must notify the guardian at least 3 days before discharging the person from the facility or, if the person will be released in less than 3 days, as soon as practicable. Notification of the legal guardian must be provided: (a) In person or by telephone; or(b) If the facility is not able to contact the guardian in person or by telephone, by facsimile, electronic mail or certified mail.3. The legal guardian has discretion to determine where the person will be released, taking into consideration any discharge plan proposed by the facility assessment team. If the legal guardian does not inform the facility as to where the person will be released within 3 days after the date of notification, the facility must discharge the person according to its proposed discharge plan.4. Before conditionally releasing a person from a public or private mental health facility pursuant to this section, the medical director of the facility must notify the court that ordered the involuntary admission. The court may periodically review the appropriateness of the conditional release and the terms thereof, but the court may not terminate the conditional release except through proceedings for involuntary admission pursuant to NRS 433A.200 to 433A.330, inclusive.5. When a person is conditionally released pursuant to this section, the State or any of its agents or employees are not liable for any debts or contractual obligations, medical or otherwise, incurred or damages caused by the actions of the person.6. When a person who has been adjudicated by a court to be incapacitated is conditionally released from a mental health facility, the administrative officer of the mental health facility shall petition the court for restoration of full civil and legal rights as deemed necessary to facilitate the incapacitated person's rehabilitation. If the person has a legal guardian, the petition must be filed with the court having jurisdiction over the guardianship.Added to NRS by 1975, 1608; A 1981, 1661; 1999, 867; 2009, 1667; 2019, 363; 2021, 3095Amended by 2021, Ch. 481,§47, eff. 10/1/2021.Amended by 2019, Ch. 66,§26, eff. 5/15/2019.Added to NRS by 1975, 1608; A 1981, 1661; 1999, 867; 2009, 1667
