What is section 5 discharge?
Section 5 discharge refers to a provision under the Mental Health Act in the UK that allows for the discharge of a patient who has been detained in a hospital for treatment. Specifically, it enables the responsible clinician to discharge a patient from their detention if they believe the patient no longer meets the criteria for detention. This can occur even if the patient has not been formally assessed by a tribunal, ensuring that individuals can be released when they are deemed fit for discharge. The process is aimed at balancing the need for treatment with the rights of individuals to liberty and autonomy.
