What happens when a service recipient referred for admission has a medical condition that needs treatment prior to admission to an RMHI?
RMHIs do not admit a service recipient if, during the evaluation for admission, it is determined that the service recipient has a physical disorder or medical condition that requires immediate medical care that the RMHI cannot appropriately provide. Service recipients are sent for treatment of the medical condition prior to being evaluated for admission to the RMHI. Any service recipient with a valid confirmation number may be transported back to the RMHI for an evaluation for admission.
