The proposed changes would remove the requirement of human rights committee review of medication prescribed for treatment or stabilization of psychiatric conditions or sedation prior to medical or dental procedures and make such reviews optional at the request of the participant or their guardian. The requirement will be added that during each annual individualized service plan (ISP) meeting, the conflict-free case manager will ask if a review is requested. The rule requiring human rights committee and ISP approval before sedation will be repealed as the process is covered in the amended rule. These changes do not impact chemical interventions.
