Why would someone be on a 5250 hold?

A 5250 hold can last for a maximum of 14 days. Healthcare professionals will docHub a 5250 hold if they believe the detainee continues to be potentially harmful to themselves or others, or if they are unable to provide for themselves as a result of a mental disability.

What is the purpose of a certification review during a 5250 hold?

5250 Extended Hold (14 Days) Following a 5150, if further assessment is required, a 5250 hold can be implemented for an additional 14 days. This is specifically for individuals still deemed a danger to themselves or others, or who are gravely disabled and potentially suicidal.
