Definition
Commitment to a mental health facility refers to the legal process by which an individual is placed into a psychiatric hospital or clinic for treatment. This can be voluntary, with the individual's consent, or involuntary, often due to concerns about the person's safety or the safety of others, based on established legal criteria and medical evaluations.
