Description
JUSTICE QUETSCH delivered the opinion of the court: Respondent, Diane Winters, was found to be a person subject to involuntary admission and was ordered to be hospitalized with
the Department of Mental Health. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1991, ch. 91 1/2, pars. 3-700, 3-811, 3-812 (now 405 ILCS 5/3-700, 3-811,
3-812 (West 1992))). Respondent raises two issues for review: (1) whether the trial court's order for involuntary admission
must be reversed because the State failed to prove by clear and convincing evidence that respondent was unable to provide
for her basic physical needs so as to guard herself from serious harm; and (2) whether the trial court ordered the least restrictive
treatment alternative.
