Specializes in Psychiatry

AWOL : If u r committed to the hospital, under a detention order, being a danger to yourself or others, or unable to care for yourself due to mental illness, assuming u meant a psychiatric facility, then a warrant will be issued to bring u back. If u r voluntarily in a hospital, not sure why u would elope in the first place.
