5.2.1. 5.2.2. 5.2.3. 5.2.4. 5.3. Placement of a person in a hospital within the frames of criminal proceedings cannot be an end in itself: it shall pursue the aim of treating the person or providing inpatient care to the person. Hence, the legislation should clarify the provision of treatment or inpatient care when a person who committed a criminal act in a state of criminal insanity is placed in a psychiatric hospital as a security measure. The Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Armenia should prescribe a mechanism for regular judicial review of the security measure of placement in a psychiatric hospital. Whenever a patient no longer needs coercive treatment, or when such treatment can be provided in a general or outpatient setting, measures shall be taken to secure that a court motion for reviewing the medical coercive measure is lodged by the relevant psychiatric organization. Court motions for reviewing medical coercive measures, which are lodged by psychiatric organizations, shall be dealt with diligently and shall be subject to appropriate oversight. Voluntary and Involuntary Treatment in a Psychiatric Organization 5.3.1. A person admitted to a psychiatric organization based on his application or his lawful representative’s application (i.e. voluntarily) shall be informed about his rights, including the right to give consent to treatment and the right to refuse treatment at any time, as well as the involuntary treatment procedure. 56
