- Certain subsections of Rule 65E-5.100 defining terms are being repealed because they are redundant to statute. The repealed subsections (2), (4), (16), and (17) merely reference definitions found in Sections 394.455(1), 394.4573(1)(b), 394.455(28) and 394.455(29), F.S., respectively. Subsection (6), which defines emergency treatment orders (ETOs) is being revised to clarify that ETOs for seclusion and restraint are to be addressed in subsection 65E-5.180(7), F.A.C.; while ETOs for psychotropic medications are to be addressed in Rule 65E-5.1703, F.A.C. Subsection (3) is inserted to provide a definition of certified recovery specialist. Subsection (18), renumbered to (15), is amended to include certified recovery specialists among the members of a Seclusion and Restraint Oversight Committee. The remaining definitions in Rule 65E-5.100, F.A.C., are being renumbered accordingly.
Subsection (3) of Rule 65E-5.1302, F.A.C., is being deleted because it merely restates a requirement found in Section 394.469, F.S.
Rule 65E-5.1303, F.A.C., is being expanded to include the provisions currently found in Rules 65E-5.1304 and 65E-5.1305, F.A.C.; the latter two rules are being repealed. Thus the provisions of these three rules are effectively being consolidated into a single rule. All of these Rules 65E-5.1303, 65E-5.1304, and 65E-5.1305, F.A.C., relate to the same topic (discharge planning). There are no substantive changes to these rules.
Rule 65E-5.1703, F.A.C., is being amended to clarify that the requirements for an emergency treatment order (ETO) for psychotropic medication are different from the requirements for seclusion and restraint. The ETO requirements for psychotropic medication are addressed in Rule 65E-5.1703, F.A.C. The seclusion and restraint requirements are contained in subsection (7) of Rule 65E-5.180, F.A.C., which is not being amended. This change clarifies and simplifies reporting requirements for service providers.
