17is consistent with the requirements of par. (a), and the department finds that the
18appropriate county department under s. 51.42 or 51.437 is unable to locate an
19approved treatment facility in the community, or that such the county department
20has acted in an arbitrary or capricious manner to prevent the transfer of the patient
21out of the state treatment facility or other inpatient facility contrary to medical and
22clinical judgment.

12and the necessary transitionary services are available and provided for the patient
13being discharged or transferred. Under this subsection, a proper residential living
14arrangement may not include a shelter facility, as defined under s. 16.352 560.9808

SB44-SSA1,575,22 2451.67 Alternate procedure; protective services. (intro.) If, after a hearing
25under s. 51.13 (4) or 51.20, the court finds that commitment under this chapter is not

1warranted and that the subject individual is a fit subject for guardianship and
2protective placement or services, the court may, without further notice, appoint a
3temporary guardian for the subject individual and order temporary protective
4placement or services under ch. 55 for a period not to exceed 30 days. If the court
5orders temporary
Temporary protective placement for an individual under the age
6of 22 years
in a center for the developmentally disabled, this placement may be made
7only at the central center for the developmentally disabled unless the department
8authorizes the placement or transfer to the northern or southern center for the
9developmentally disabled
is subject to s. 51.06 (3). Any interested party may then
10file a petition for permanent guardianship or protective placement or services,
11including medication, under ch. 55. If the individual is in a treatment facility, the
12individual may remain in the facility during the period of temporary protective
13placement if no other appropriate facility is available. The court may order
14psychotropic medication as a temporary protective service under this section if it
15finds that there is probable cause to believe the individual is not competent to refuse
16psychotropic medication and that the medication ordered will have therapeutic
17value and will not unreasonably impair the ability of the individual to prepare for
18and participate in subsequent legal proceedings. An individual is not competent to
19refuse psychotropic medication if, because of chronic mental illness, and after the
20advantages and disadvantages of and alternatives to accepting the particular
21psychotropic medication have been explained to the individual, one of the following
22is true:

SB44-SSA1,576,11 2455.001 Declaration of policy. The legislature recognizes that many citizens
25of the state, because of the infirmities of aging, chronic mental illness, mental

1retardation, other developmental disabilities or like incapacities incurred at any age,
2are in need of protective services. These Except as provided in s. 49.45 (30m) (a),
3these
services should, to the maximum degree of feasibility under programs, services
4and resources that the county board of supervisors is reasonably able to provide
5within the limits of available state and federal funds and of county funds required
6to be appropriated to match state funds, allow the individual the same rights as other
7citizens, and at the same time protect the individual from exploitation, abuse and
8degrading treatment. This chapter is designed to establish those services and assure
9their availability to all persons when in need of them, and to place the least possible
10restriction on personal liberty and exercise of constitutional rights consistent with
11due process and protection from abuse, exploitation and neglect.

1department.
The incompetent or proposed incompetent is presumed able to attend
2the hearing unless, after a personal interview, the guardian ad litem certifies to the
3court that the person is unable to attend.
SB44-SSA1, s. 1509 4Section 1509. 55.06 (8) (intro.) of the statutes is amended to read:
SB44-SSA1,579,45 55.06 (8) (intro.) Before ordering the protective placement of any individual,
6the court shall direct a comprehensive evaluation of the person in need of placement,
7if such an evaluation has not already been made. The court may utilize available
8multidisciplinary resources in the community in determining the need for
9placement. The board designated under s. 55.02 or an agency designated by it shall
10cooperate with the court in securing available resources. Where applicable by reason
11of the particular disability, the appropriate board designated under s. 55.02 or an
12agency designated by it having responsibility for the place of legal residence of the
13individual as provided in s. 49.001 (6) shall make a recommendation for placement.
14If the court is considering placement of the individual in a center for the
15developmentally disabled, the court shall request a statement or testimony from the
16department regarding whether the placement is appropriate for the person's needs
17and whether it is consistent with the purpose of the center under s. 51.06 (1) unless
18testimony was provided by the department under sub. (5)
. If the individual has a
19developmental disability and the court is considering placement of the individual in
20an intermediate facility or a nursing facility, the court shall request a statement or
21testimony from the county department of the individual's county of residence that is
22participating in the program under s. 46.278 as to whether the individual's needs
23could be met in a noninstitutional setting, except that, if s. 46.279 (4m) applies to the
24individual, the court shall request the statement or testimony from the department,
25rather than the county department
. A copy of the comprehensive evaluation shall be

1provided to the guardian, the guardian ad litem, and to the individual or attorney
2at least 96 hours in advance of the hearing to determine placement. The court or the
3cooperating agency obtaining the evaluation shall request appropriate information
4which shall include at least the following:
SB44-SSA1, s. 1510 5Section 1510. 55.06 (9) (a) of the statutes is amended to read:
SB44-SSA1,580,186 55.06 (9) (a) The court may order protective services under s. 55.05 (2) (d) as
7an alternative to placement. When ordering placement, the court, on the basis of the
8evaluation and other relevant evidence, shall order the appropriate board specified
9under s. 55.02 or an agency designated by it to protectively place the individual.
10Placement by the appropriate board or designated agency is subject to s. 46.279 and
11shall be made in the least restrictive environment consistent with the needs of the
12person to be placed and with the placement resources of the appropriate board
13specified under s. 55.02. Factors to be considered in making protective placement
14shall include the needs of the person to be protected for health, social, or
15rehabilitative services; the level of supervision needed; the reasonableness of the
16placement given the cost and the actual benefits in the level of functioning to be
17realized by the individual; the limits of available state and federal funds and of
18county funds required to be appropriated to match state funds; and the
19reasonableness of the placement given the number or projected number of
20individuals who will need protective placement and given the limited funds
21available. The Except as provided in s. 49.45 (30m), the county may not be required
22to provide funding, in addition to its funds that are required to be appropriated to
23match state funds, in order to protectively place an individual. Placement under this
24section does not replace commitment of a person in need of acute psychiatric
25treatment under s. 51.20 or 51.45 (13). Placement Subject to s. 46.279, placement

1may be made to such facilities as nursing homes, public medical institutions, centers
2for the developmentally disabled under the requirements of s. 51.06 (3), foster care
3services and other home placements, or to other appropriate facilities but may not
4be made to units for the acutely mentally ill. If the appropriate board or designated
5agency proposes to place an individual who has a developmental disability in an
6intermediate facility or a nursing facility under an order under this paragraph, the
7county department, or, if s. 46.279 (4m) applies to the individual, the department or
8the department's contractor shall develop a plan under s. 46.279 (4) and furnish the
9plan to the board or agency and to the individual's guardian. The board or agency
10shall place the individual in a noninstitutional community setting in accord with the
11plan unless the court finds that placement in the intermediate facility or nursing
12facility is the most integrated setting, as defined in s. 46.279 (1) (bm), that is
13appropriate to the needs of the individual taking into account information presented
14by all affected parties.
The prohibition of placements in units for the acutely
15mentally ill does not prevent placement by a court for short-term diagnostic
16procedures under par. (d). Placement in a locked unit shall require a specific finding
17of the court as to the need for such action. A placement facility may transfer a patient
18from a locked unit to a less restrictive environment without court approval.
SB44-SSA1, s. 1511 19Section 1511. 55.06 (9) (b) of the statutes is amended to read:
SB44-SSA1,581,1820 55.06 (9) (b) Transfer may be made between placement units or from a
21placement unit to a medical facility other than those specified in pars. (c) to (e) by a
22guardian or placement facility without approval by a court. When transfer is made
23by a placement facility, 24 hours' prior written notice of the transfer shall be provided
24to the guardian, when feasible. If it is not feasible to notify the guardian in advance,
25written notice shall be provided immediately upon transfer, and notice shall also be

1provided to the court and to the board designated under s. 55.02 or an agency
2designated by it within a reasonable time, not to exceed 48 hours from the time of the
3transfer. Upon petition to a court by a guardian, ward, or attorney, or other
4interested person specifying objections to a transfer, or if the person is transferred
5to an intermediate facility or to a nursing facility
, the court shall order a hearing,
6within 96 hours after filing of the petition, to determine whether there is probable
7cause to believe that the transfer is consistent with the requirements specified in par.
8(a) and is necessary for the best interests of the ward or, if the person is transferred
9to an intermediate facility or to a nursing facility, to determine if the intermediate
10facility or nursing facility is the most integrated setting, as defined in s. 46.279 (1)
11(bm), that is appropriate to the needs of the ward taking into account information
12presented by all affected parties
. The court shall notify the ward, guardian, and
13petitioner of the time and place of the hearing, and a guardian ad litem shall be
14appointed to represent the ward. If the person is an adult who is indigent, the county
15of legal settlement shall be liable for guardian ad litem fees. If the person is a child,
16the person's parents or the county of legal settlement shall be liable for guardian ad
17litem fees as provided in s. 48.235 (8). The petitioner, ward, and guardian shall have
18the right to attend, and to present and cross-examine witnesses.

22court and appropriate board designated under s. 55.02 or an agency designated by
23it in the manner prescribed in par. (b). Upon petition by a guardian, ward or attorney,
24or other interested person specifying objections to the transfer or if the person has

1a developmental disability and is transferred to an intermediate facility or a nursing
2facility
, the court shall order a hearing as provided in par. (b).

8residence of the person that is participating in the program under s. 46.278 or, if s.
946.279 (4m) applies to the person, the department, at least 120 days before the
10review. The county department so notified or, if s. 46.279 (4m) applies, the
11department's contractor shall develop a plan under s. 46.279 (4) and furnish the plan
12to the court that ordered the placement and to the person's guardian. The court shall
13order that the person be transferred to the noninstitutional community setting in
14accordance with the plan unless the court finds that placement in the intermediate
15facility or nursing facility is the most integrated setting, as defined in s. 46.279 (1)

20order temporary placement up to 30 days pending the hearing for a permanent
21placement, or the court may order such protective services as may be required. If an
22individual who has a developmental disability is ordered, under this paragraph, to
23be temporarily placed in an intermediate facility or in a nursing facility, and if at the
24hearing for permanent placement the court orders that the individual be protectively
25placed, the court may, before permanent placement, extend the temporary placement
