A person can be placed on a 72-hour hold, also known as an involuntary psychiatric hold, if they are deemed to be a danger to themselves or others due to a mental health crisis. This typically involves a mental health professional or law enforcement officer evaluating the individual and determining that they need immediate psychiatric evaluation and treatment. The hold allows for the individual to be taken to a psychiatric facility for assessment and care for up to 72 hours.
