    All good, I always feel like it’s 72 hours, and I think the equivalent in most states is only 72 I think we’re the odd one out on that, and I feel like in most cases patients managed to get stabilized enough to be discharged after the 72 hours.

    I kind of feel like the extra two days are mostly so there’s time to get everything set up for a 303 in case the patient tries to fight it and it goes to court. I had to be a witness for that over a call I took once, I only got like a day or two’s notice because it all has to happen on such a condensed timeline

      Yeah I mean the majority of the time we had them out in 3 days so that’s probably what I’m remembering. I don’t miss those days
