14an alternative to placement. When ordering placement, the court, on the basis of the
15evaluation and other relevant evidence shall order the appropriate board specified
16under s. 55.02 or an agency designated by it to protectively place the individual.
17Placement by the appropriate board or designated agency shall be made in the least
18restrictive environment consistent with the needs of the person to be placed and with
19the placement resources of the appropriate board specified under s. 55.02. Factors
20to be considered in making protective placement shall include the needs of the person
21to be protected for health, social or rehabilitative services; the level of supervision

9other home placements placement, or to any other appropriate facilities facility but
10may not be made to units a unit for the acutely mentally ill. The prohibition of
11placements in units for the acutely mentally ill does not prevent placement by a court
12for short-term diagnostic procedures under par. (d). Placement in a locked unit shall
13require a specific finding of the court as to the need for such action. A placement
14facility may transfer a patient from a locked unit to a less restrictive environment
15without court approval.
