The document titled 'Sent “Home” With Nothing: The Deportation of Jamaicans with Mental Disabilities' is a comprehensive report by the Georgetown Law Human Rights Institute that examines the challenges faced by mentally disabled individuals deported from the United States to Jamaica. It highlights systemic issues in U.S. deportation policies, including inadequate communication between governments, lack of medical care and support upon arrival, barriers to housing and employment, and pervasive stigma against both deportees and those with mental disabilities. The report calls for significant reforms in U.S. policies to ensure the protection of human rights for this vulnerable population, including establishing memorandums of understanding with receiving countries, improving pre-deportation communication, and providing necessary resources for reintegration.

Can a hospital discharge a patient who cannot care for themselves?

No. If you physician says you are medically ready to leave, the hospital must discharge you. If you decide to leave without your physicians approval, the hospital still must let you go.

Can the hospital discharge you with nowhere to go?

Although you cannot stay in a hospital indefinitely, the hospital cannot discharge someone needing long term care until it arranges safe and adequate follow-up care. California state policy and some local ordinances prohibit hospitals from discharging their patients to homeless shelters or to the streets.

What happens if I just leave the ER?

An unsafe discharge occurs when a patient is released prematurely, released without being given post-discharge care instructions or a personalized care plan, or released before their health concerns are actually addressed.

Can hospitals discharge patients with nowhere to go?

Californias Health and Safety Code requires hospitals to have a discharge policy for all patients, including those who are homeless. Hospitals must make prior arrangements for patients, either with family, at a care home, or at another appropriate agency, the code says.
