(C) At the hearing described in subparagraph (A), the court shall consider all of the following:

(ii) Whether the minor continues to suffer from a mental disorder which may reasonably be expected to be cured or ameliorated by a course of treatment offered by the facility.

(iii) Whether there continues to be no other available hospital, program, facility, or community-based mental health service which might better serve the minor’s medical needs and best interest.

(iv) Whether the psychiatric residential treatment facility, which is licensed pursuant to Section 4081, continues to meet its legal obligation to provide services to the minor.

(D) If the court finds that the minor or their parent or guardian continues to give voluntary consent to admission, that the minor continues to suffer from a mental disorder which may reasonably be expected to be cured or ameliorated by a course of treatment offered by the facility, and that there continues to be no other available hospital, program, facility, or community-based mental health service which might better serve the minor’s medical need and best interest, the court may authorize continued inpatient psychiatric services for the minor in a psychiatric residential treatment facility. If the child has been in the facility for over 30 days, there shall be a

rebuttable presumption that the facility is not the least restrictive alternative to serve the child’s medical need and best interest.

(E) (i) If the court finds that the minor or their parent or

guardian no longer consents to the minor’s admission, the court shall direct the probation officer to work immediately with the facility for discharge to a different setting with the appropriate and necessary services and supports in place. A statement from the minor’s attorney that the minor no longer gives voluntary consent to the admission to the facility may be sufficient to support a finding that the minor no longer gives voluntary consent. The court shall set a hearing no later than 30 days to verify that the minor has been discharged. If the minor has not been discharged by the time of the hearing, the court shall issue any and all orders to effectuate the child’s immediate discharge, including exercising its powers under subdivision (b) of Section 727. This paragraph does not preclude involuntary detention of the minor pursuant to the requirements of the Children’s Civil Commitment

and Mental Health Treatment Act of 1988 or Lanterman-Petris-Short Act if the minor withdraws voluntary consent.

(F) If the court determines the psychiatric residential treatment facility, which is licensed pursuant to Section 4081, failed to meet its

legal obligation to provide services to the minor, it may direct the social worker to engage with the facility to ensure the minor is receiving all necessary services. If necessary, the court may exercise its powers under subdivision (b) of Section 727.

(G) The court may make any orders necessary to ensure that the county probation department makes all necessary arrangements for the minor’s discharge promptly and that all services and supports are in place for the minor’s successful transition to a different setting. The court may direct the social worker to work with the facility on the child’s aftercare plans as appropriate based on the child’s progress.

(ii) Whether there is an available less restrictive setting

sufficient to meet the nonminor dependent’s needs, including a less restrictive facility or community-based care.

(iii) Whether the nonminor dependent continues to meet medical necessity for care and treatment in the psychiatric residential treatment facility.

(iv) Whether the psychiatric residential treatment facility, which is licensed pursuant to Section 4081, continues to meet its legal obligation to provide services to the nonminor dependent.

(D) If the court finds at any review hearing that the

nonminor dependent continues to voluntarily consent to admission and that the evidence supports the nonminor dependent’s need for care and treatment in the psychiatric residential treatment facility, the court shall enter these findings in the record and direct the probation officer to transmit them to the facility or interdisciplinary team. If the nonminor dependent continues to voluntarily consent to admission, the court may direct the probation officer to work with the facility on the nonminor dependent’s aftercare plans as appropriate based on the nonminor dependent’s needs to achieve independence.

(E) (i) If the court finds that the nonminor dependent no longer voluntarily consents, the court shall direct the probation officer to notify the facility and immediately work with the nonminor dependent and the

facility for discharge to a less restrictive setting with the appropriate and necessary services and supports in place. A statement from the nonminor dependent’s attorney that the nonminor dependent no longer gives voluntary consent to the admission to the facility may be sufficient to support a finding that the nonminor dependent no longer gives voluntary consent. The court shall set a hearing no later than 30 days to verify that the nonminor dependent has been discharged. If the nonminor dependent has not been discharged by the time of the hearing, the court shall issue any and all orders to effectuate the nonminor dependents’s immediate discharge, including exercising its powers under subdivision (b) of Section 727. This paragraph does not preclude involuntary detention of the nonminor dependent pursuant to the requirements of the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act if the nonminor dependent withdraws

voluntary consent. This paragraph does not preclude the nonminor dependent from arranging their own discharge from the facility without a court order.

(ii) If the court’s determination under clause (i) includes a determination that the nonminor dependent should receive treatment through another hospital, program, facility, or community-based mental health service, the court shall hold a hearing no later than 60 days from the nonminor dependent’s discharge to ensure that the other services have been provided.

(F) This paragraph does not prevent the court from holding review hearings more frequently at its discretion.

residential treatment facility shall be effective until the first of the following events occurs:

to the consent of a conservator, the court shall

review the probation department’s plan developed pursuant to subdivisions (c) and (d) of Section 16010.10. The court may make any orders necessary to ensure that the probation department promptly makes all necessary arrangements to ensure that the minor or nonminor dependent is discharged in a timely manner and with all services and supports in place as necessary for a successful transition to a less restrictive setting. The court may direct the probation officer to work with the facility or, where appropriate, the minor’s or nonminor dependent’s court-appointed conservator to ensure the minor or nonminor dependent is receiving all necessary child welfare services and to develop the minor’s or nonminor dependent’s aftercare plan as appropriate based on the evidence of the minor’s or nonminor dependent’s progress.

The probation department shall have the burden of establishing that detriment. In making its determination, the court shall review and consider the social study report, recommendations, and the case plan pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 706.5, the report and recommendations of any child advocate appointed for the minor in the case, and any other reports submitted to the court pursuant to subdivision (d), and shall consider the efforts or progress, or both, demonstrated by the minor and family and the extent to which the minor availed themselves of the services provided.
