I am a paranoid schizophrenic. I have been baker acted 6x. Once voluntarily. Had this not been the case, my life would have continued down the various rabbit holes I created for myself. I have been 51-50, baker acted multiple times, bit I'm not dead and I haven't injured anyone. Glory be to those who work in a psych ward.
My father is 78 and bad alcoholic. He's fallen or hurt himself 15 times at least in last year alone. Police EMS adult protective health agency all have done absolutely zero. There is always some loophole or pass the buck.new York needs serious law reform.
Having family members that need care but deny it because they don’t think they do is beyond frustrating. They aren’t in the right mind to make decisions for themselves.
Why isn't this on Long Island. My daughter is 23 and has been in more ER visits.....she IS a danger to herself....but is always discharged....this will not end well...I mentioned the Baker Act to them they said not in ny....dear God please help us
Im in Montefieri Hosital emergency room more than half of patients need to be Baker Act. Due to abuse and neglect of prescription drug abuse and suicides journeys many die. But with the Baker Act lives are saved.
I struggled with mental health issues growing up and believe this could help save so many people
