Propose a change

Title 25 Institutions of the State

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

What to do with it
As published

25-10-113. Duties of head of hospital upon admission; treatment of patients primarily needing medical care.

(a) As soon as possible but not later than seven (7) days after a patient is admitted to a hospital under this act, the head of the hospital shall: (i) Review the patient's record; (ii) Examine the patient; and (iii) Develop an initial plan of treatment for the patient. (b) If the medical staff of the state hospital determines that a patient's primary need for care is medical as opposed to psychiatric, the head of the state hospital may refuse to admit the patient if the state hospital has limited medical facilities or staff to provide for the necessary medical needs of the patient. If admittance is refused, the patient shall be transported to a medical facility that is qualified to meet the medical needs of the patient.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
