If  it was opined the employee was a danger to themselves or others, they were taken to the ED for a psych evaluation. If they refused we would have to section 12 them(Massachusetts) and call an ambulance. Most of the times the employee was cooperative.

Does anyone have a policy that addresses this subject, so that I can build on it to provide my health system with one thath suits their needs.
