205     (a)  The policy of the state is that the individual dignity
206of the client shall be respected at all times and upon all
207occasions, including any occasion when the forensic client is
208detained, transported, or treated. Clients with mental illness,
209retardation, or autism and who are charged with committing
210felonies shall receive appropriate treatment or training. In a
211criminal case involving a client who has been adjudicated
212incompetent to proceed or not guilty by reason of insanity, a
213jail may be used as an emergency facility for up to 15 days
214following the date the department or agency receives a completed
215copy of the court commitment order containing all documentation
216required by the applicable Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure.
217For a forensic client who is held in a jail awaiting admission

219treatment or training may be provided in the jail by the local
220community mental health provider for mental health services, by
221the developmental disabilities program for persons with
222retardation or autism, the client's physician or psychologist,
223or any other appropriate program until the client is transferred
224to a civil or forensic facility. In a criminal case involving a
225forensic client who is serving a sentence in the custody of the
226Department of Corrections and who has been adjudicated
227incompetent to proceed or not guilty by reason of insanity, the
228Department of Corrections may continue to retain physical
229custody of the forensic client. However, the department shall
230remain responsible for all necessary and appropriate competency
231evaluation, treatment, and training for the client. If ordered
232by the department's treating psychiatrist, the Department of
233Corrections shall provide and administer any necessary
234medications for the client.
235     (b)  Forensic clients who are initially placed in, or
236subsequently transferred to, a civil facility as described in
237part I of chapter 394 or to a residential facility as described
238in chapter 393 shall have the same rights as other persons
239committed to these facilities for as long as they remain there.
240Notwithstanding the rights described in this section, forensic
241clients who are housed with the Department of Corrections shall
242have the same duties, rights, and responsibilities as other
243inmates committed to the custody of the Department of
244Corrections and shall be subject to the rules adopted by the
245Department of Corrections to implement its statutory authority.
246     (2)  RIGHT TO TREATMENT.-
247     (d)  Not more than 30 days after admission to a civil or
248forensic facility, each client shall have and receive, in
249writing, an individualized treatment or training plan which the
250client has had an opportunity to assist in preparing.
251     (3)  RIGHT TO EXPRESS AND INFORMED CONSENT.-
252     (a)  A forensic client shall be asked to give express and
253informed written consent for treatment. If a client refuses such
254treatment as is deemed necessary and essential by the client's
255multidisciplinary treatment team for the appropriate care of the
256client, such treatment may be provided under the following
257circumstances:
258     1.  In an emergency situation in which there is immediate
259danger to the safety of the client or others, such treatment may
260be provided upon the written order of a physician for a period
261not to exceed 48 hours, excluding weekends and legal holidays.
262If, after the 48-hour period, the client has not given express
263and informed consent to the treatment initially refused, the
264administrator or designee of the civil or forensic facility
265shall, within 48 hours, excluding weekends and legal holidays,
266petition the committing court or the circuit court serving the
267county in which the facility is located, or in which the
268forensic client is located, if in the Department of Corrections'
269custody, at the option of the facility administrator or
270designee, for an order authorizing the continued treatment of
271the client. In the interim, the need for treatment shall be
272reviewed every 48 hours and may be continued without the consent
273of the client upon the continued written order of a physician
274who has determined that the emergency situation continues to
275present a danger to the safety of the client or others.
276     2.  In a situation other than an emergency situation, the
277administrator or designee of the facility shall petition the
278court for an order authorizing necessary and essential treatment
279for the client.
280     a.  If the client has been receiving psychotherapeutic
281medication for a diagnosed mental disorder at a county jail at
282the time of transfer to the state forensic mental health
283treatment facility and lacks the capacity to make an informed
284decision regarding mental health treatment at the time of
285admission, the admitting physician may order a continuation of
286the psychotherapeutic medication if, in the clinical judgment of
287the physician, abrupt cessation of the psychotherapeutic
288medication could pose a risk to the health and safety of the
289client during the time a court order to medicate is pursued. The
290county jail physician shall provide a current psychotherapeutic
291medication order at the time of transfer to the admitting
292facility.
293     b.  If a forensic client has been receiving
294psychotherapeutic medication for a diagnosed mental disorder at
295the Department of Corrections and lacks the capacity to make an
296informed decision regarding mental health treatment, the
297department's treating physician shall coordinate continuation of
298the psychotherapeutic medication if, in the clinical judgment of
299the Department of Corrections' physician, abrupt cessation of
300the psychotherapeutic medication could pose a risk to the health
301and safety of the forensic client during the time a court order
302to medicate is pursued. The Department of Corrections' physician
303shall provide a current psychotherapeutic medication order to
304any department physician providing treatment to a forensic
305client housed with the Department of Corrections.
306     c.  The court order shall allow such treatment for a period
307not to exceed 90 days following the date of the entry of the
308order. Unless the court is notified in writing that the client
309has provided express and informed consent in writing or that the
310client has been discharged by the committing court, the
311administrator or designee shall, prior to the expiration of the
312initial 90-day order, petition the court for an order
313authorizing the continuation of treatment for another 90-day
314period. This procedure shall be repeated until the client
315provides consent or is discharged by the committing court.
316     3.  At the hearing on the issue of whether the court should
317enter an order authorizing treatment for which a client was
318unable to or refused to give express and informed consent, the
319court shall determine by clear and convincing evidence that the
320client has mental illness, retardation, or autism, that the
321treatment not consented to is essential to the care of the
322client, and that the treatment not consented to is not
323experimental and does not present an unreasonable risk of
324serious, hazardous, or irreversible side effects. In arriving at
325the substitute judgment decision, the court must consider at
326least the following factors:
327     a.  The client's expressed preference regarding treatment;
328     b.  The probability of adverse side effects;
329     c.  The prognosis without treatment; and
330     d.  The prognosis with treatment.
331
332The hearing shall be as convenient to the client as may be
333consistent with orderly procedure and shall be conducted in
334physical settings not likely to be injurious to the client's
335condition. The court may appoint a general or special magistrate
336to preside at the hearing. The client or the client's guardian,
337and the representative, shall be provided with a copy of the
338petition and the date, time, and location of the hearing. The
339client has the right to have an attorney represent him or her at
340the hearing, and, if the client is indigent, the court shall
341appoint the office of the public defender to represent the
342client at the hearing. The client may testify or not, as he or
343she chooses, and has the right to cross-examine witnesses and

351staff.

353forensic client housed in a civil or forensic facility has the
354right to communicate freely and privately with persons outside
355the facility unless it is determined that such communication is
356likely to be harmful to the client or others. Clients shall have
357the right to contact and to receive communication from their
358attorneys at any reasonable time.
359     (a)  Each forensic client housed in a civil or forensic
360facility shall be allowed to receive, send, and mail sealed,
361unopened correspondence; and no client's incoming or outgoing
362correspondence shall be opened, delayed, held, or censored by
363the facility unless there is reason to believe that it contains
364items or substances that may be harmful to the client or others,
365in which case the administrator or designee may direct
366reasonable examination of such mail and may regulate the
367disposition of such items or substances. For purposes of this
368paragraph, the term "correspondence" does not include parcels or
369packages. Forensic facilities may promulgate reasonable
370institutional policies to provide for the inspection of parcels
371or packages and for the removal of contraband items for health
372or security reasons prior to the contents being given to a
373client.
374     (b)  If a client's right to communicate is restricted by
375the administrator, written notice of such restriction and the
376duration of the restriction shall be served on the client or his
377or her legal guardian or representatives, and such restriction
378shall be recorded on the client's clinical record with the
379reasons therefor. The restriction of a client's right to
380communicate shall be reviewed at least every 7 days.
381     (c)  Each forensic facility shall establish reasonable

400effects shall be respected. The department or agency by rule, or
401the administrator of any forensic facility by written
402institutional policy, may declare certain items to be hazardous
403to the health or welfare of clients or others or to the
404operation of the facility. Such items may be restricted from
405introduction into the facility or may be restricted from being
406in a client's possession. The administrator or designee may take
407temporary custody of such effects when required for medical and
408safety reasons. Custody of such personal effects shall be

739     Section 14.  Section 944.804, Florida Statutes, is amended
740to read:
741     944.804  Elderly offenders in correctional facilities
742program of 2000.-
743     (1)  The Legislature finds that the number and percentage
744of elderly offenders in the Florida prison system are is
745increasing and will continue to increase for the foreseeable
746future. The current cost to incarcerate elderly offenders is
747approximately three times the cost of incarceration of younger
748inmates. Alternatives to the current approaches to housing,
749programming, and treating the medical needs of elderly
750offenders, which may reduce the overall costs associated with
751this segment of the prison population, must be explored and
752implemented.
753     (2)  The department shall establish and operate a geriatric
754correctional facilities or geriatric dorms within a facility at
755the site known as River Junction Correctional Institution, which
756shall be an institution specifically for generally healthy
757elderly offenders who can perform general work appropriate for
758their physical and mental condition. Prior to reopening the
759facility, the department shall make modifications to the
760facility which will ensure its compliance with the Americans
761with Disabilities Act and decrease the likelihood of falls,
762accidental injury, and other conditions known to be particularly
763hazardous to the elderly.
764     (a)  In order to decrease long-term medical costs to the
765state, a preventive fitness/wellness program and diet
766specifically designed to maintain the mental and physical health
767of elderly offenders shall be developed and implemented. In
768developing the program, the department shall give consideration
769to preventive medical care for the elderly which shall include,
770but not be limited to, maintenance of bone density, all aspects
771of cardiovascular health, lung capacity, mental alertness, and
772orientation. Existing policies and procedures shall be
773reexamined and altered to encourage offenders to adopt a more
774healthy lifestyle and maximize their level of functioning. The
775program components shall be modified as data and experience are
776received which measure the relative success of the program
777components previously implemented.
778     (b)  Consideration must be given to redirecting resources
779as a method of offsetting increased medical costs. Elderly
780offenders are not likely to reenter society as a part of the
781workforce, and programming resources would be better spent in
782activities to keep the elderly offenders healthy, alert, and
783oriented. Limited or restricted programming or activities for
784elderly offenders will increase the daily cost of institutional
785and health care, and programming opportunities adequate to
786reduce the cost of care will be provided. Programming shall
787include, but not be limited to, recreation, education, and
788counseling which is needs-specific to elderly offenders.
789Institutional staff shall be specifically trained to effectively
790supervise elderly offenders and to detect physical or mental
791changes which warrant medical attention before more serious
792problems develop.
793     (3)  The department shall adopt rules that specify which
794elderly offenders shall be eligible to be housed at the
795geriatric correctional facilities or dorms River Junction
796Correctional Institution.
797     (4)  While developing the criteria for eligibility, the
798department shall use the information in existing offender
799databases to determine the number of offenders who would be
800eligible. The Legislature directs the department to consider a
801broad range of elderly offenders for River Junction Correctional
802Institution who have good disciplinary records and a medical
803grade that will permit them to perform meaningful work
804activities, including participation in an appropriate
805correctional work program (PRIDE) facility, if available.
806     (5)  The department shall also submit a study based on
807existing offenders which projects the number of existing
808offenders who will qualify under the rules. An appendix to the
809study shall identify the specific offenders who qualify.
810     Section 15.  Section 944.8041, Florida Statutes, is amended
811to read:
812     944.8041  Elderly offenders; annual review.-For the purpose

816report on the status and treatment of elderly offenders in the
817state-administered and private state correctional systems, as
818well as such information on the department's geriatric
819correctional facilities and dorms River Junction Correctional
820Institution. In order to adequately prepare the reports, the
821department and the Department of Management Services shall grant
822access to the Correctional Medical Authority which includes
823access to the facilities, offenders, and any information the
824agencies require to complete their reports. The review shall
825also include an examination of promising geriatric policies,
826practices, and programs currently implemented in other
827correctional systems within the United States. The reports, with
828specific findings and recommendations for implementation, shall

1191     958.045  Youthful offender basic training program.-
1192     (1)  The department shall develop and implement a basic
1193training program for youthful offenders sentenced or classified
1194by the department as youthful offenders pursuant to this
1195chapter. The period of time to be served at the basic training
1196program shall be no less than 120 days.
1197     (a)  The program shall include marching drills,
1198calisthenics, a rigid dress code, manual labor assignments,
1199physical training with obstacle courses, training in
1200decisionmaking and personal development, general education
1201development and adult basic education courses, and drug

1204administration of the youthful offender basic training program,
1205requiring that basic training participants complete a structured
1206disciplinary program, and allowing for a restriction on general
1207inmate population privileges.
1208     (2)  Upon receipt of youthful offenders, the department
1209shall screen offenders for the basic training program. To
1210participate, an offender must have no physical limitations that
1211preclude participation in strenuous activity, must not be
1212impaired, and must not have been previously incarcerated in a
1213state or federal correctional facility. In screening offenders
1214for the basic training program, the department shall consider
1215the offender's criminal history and the possible rehabilitative
1216benefits of "shock" incarceration.
1217     (a)  If an offender meets the specified criteria and space
1218is available, the department shall request, in writing from the
1219sentencing court, approval for the offender to participate in
1220the basic training program. If the person is classified by the
1221department as a youthful offender and the department is
1222requesting approval from the sentencing court for placement in
1223the program, the department shall, at the same time, notify the
1224state attorney that the offender is being considered for
1225placement in the basic training program. The notice must explain
1226that the purpose of such placement is diversion from lengthy
1227incarceration when a short "shock" incarceration could produce
1228the same deterrent effect, and that the state attorney may,
1229within 14 days after the mailing of the notice, notify the
1230sentencing court in writing of objections, if any, to the
1231placement of the offender in the basic training program.

1233writing of placement approval no later than 21 days after
1234receipt of the department's request for placement of the

1237approval by the sentencing court for placing the youthful
1238offender in the basic training program. Each state attorney may
1239develop procedures for notifying the victim that the offender is
1240being considered for placement in the basic training program.
1241     (3)  The program shall provide a short incarceration period
1242of rigorous training to offenders who require a greater degree
1243of supervision than community control or probation provides.
1244Basic training programs may be operated in secure areas in or
1245adjacent to an adult institution notwithstanding s. 958.11. The
1246program is not intended to divert offenders away from probation
1247or community control but to divert them from long periods of
1248incarceration when a short "shock" incarceration could produce
1249the same deterrent effect.
1250     (4)  Upon admittance to the department, an educational and
1251substance abuse assessment shall be performed on each youthful
1252offender. Upon admittance to the basic training program, each
1253offender shall have a full substance abuse assessment to
1254determine the offender's need for substance abuse treatment. The
1255educational assessment shall be accomplished through the aid of
1256the Test of Adult Basic Education or any other testing
1257instrument approved by the Department of Education, as
1258appropriate. Each offender who has not obtained a high school
1259diploma shall be enrolled in an adult education program designed
1260to aid the offender in improving his or her academic skills and
1261earning a high school diploma. Further assessments of the prior
1262vocational skills and future career education shall be provided
1263to the offender. A periodic evaluation shall be made to assess
1264the progress of each offender, and upon completion of the basic
1265training program the assessment and information from the
1266department's record of each offender shall be transferred to the
1267appropriate community residential program.
1268     (5)(a)  If an offender in the basic training program
1269becomes unmanageable, the department may revoke the offender's
1270gain-time and place the offender in disciplinary confinement in
1271accordance with department rule for up to 30 days. Except as
1272provided in paragraph (b) Upon completion of the disciplinary
1273process, the offender shall be readmitted to the basic training
1274program upon completion of the disciplinary process. Any period
1275of time in which the offender is unable to participate in the
1276basic training activities may be excluded from the program's
1277specified time requirements.
1278     (b)  The department may terminate an offender from the
1279basic training program if:
1280     1.  The offender has committed or threatened to commit a
1281violent act;
1282     2.  The department determines that the offender is unable
1283to participate in the basic training activities due to medical
1284reasons;
1285     3.  The offender's sentence is modified or expires;
1286     4.  The department reassigns the offender's classification
1287status; or
1288     5.  The department determines that removing the offender
1289from the program is in the best interests of the offender or the
1290security of the institution, except for an offender who has
1291committed or threatened to commit a violent act.
1292
1293If the offender is terminated from the program, the department
1294may place the offender in a youthful offender facility or assign
1295a youthful offender to a non-youthful-offender facility in
1296accordance with s. 958.11(3) the general population to complete
1297the remainder of the offender's sentence. Any period of time in
1298which the offender is unable to participate in the basic
1299training activities may be excluded from the specified time
1300requirements in the program.
1301     (c)(b)  If the offender is unable to participate in the
1302basic training activities due to medical reasons, certified
1303medical personnel shall examine the offender and shall consult
1304with the basic training program director concerning the
1305offender's termination from the program.
1306     (d)(c)  The portion of the sentence served before placement
1307in the basic training program may not be counted toward program
1308completion. The department shall submit a report to the court at
1309least 30 days before the youthful offender is scheduled to
1310complete the basic training program. The report must describe
1311the offender's performance in the basic training program. If the
1312youthful offender's performance is satisfactory, the court shall
1313issue an order modifying the sentence imposed and place the
1314offender under supervision on probation subject to the offender
1315successfully completing the remainder of the basic training
1316program. The term of probation may include placement in a
1317community residential program. If the offender violates the
1318conditions of supervision probation, the court may revoke
1319supervision probation and impose any sentence that it might have
1320originally imposed.
1321     (6)(a)  Upon completing the basic training program, an
1322offender shall be transferred to a community residential program
1323and reside there for a term designated by department rule. If
1324the basic training program director determines that the offender
1325is not suitable for the community residential program but is
1326suitable for an alternative postrelease program or release plan,
1327within 30 days prior to program completion the department shall
1328evaluate the offender's needs and determine an alternative
1329postrelease program or plan. The department's consideration
1330shall include, but not be limited to, the offender's employment,
1331residence, family situation, and probation or postrelease
1332supervision obligations. Upon the approval of the department,
1333the offender shall be released to an alternative postrelease
1334program or plan.
1335     (b)  While in the community residential program, as
1336appropriate, the offender shall engage in gainful employment,
1337and if any, shall pay restitution to the victim. If appropriate,
1338the offender may enroll in substance abuse counseling, and if
1339suitable, shall enroll in a general education development or
1340adult basic education class for the purpose of attaining a high
1341school diploma. Upon release from the community residential
1342program, the offender shall remain on probation, or other
1343postrelease supervision, and abide by the conditions of the
1344offender's probation or postrelease supervision. If, upon
1345transfer from the community residential program, the offender
1346has not completed the enrolled educational program, the offender
1347shall continue the educational program until completed. If the
1348offender fails to complete the program, the department may
1349request the court or the control release authority to execute an
1350order returning the offender back to the community residential
1351program until completion of the program.
1352     (6)(7)  The department shall implement the basic training
1353program to the fullest extent feasible within the provisions of
1354this section.
1355     (8)(a)  The Assistant Secretary for Youthful Offenders
1356shall continuously screen all institutions, facilities, and
1357programs for any inmate who meets the eligibility requirements
1358for youthful offender designation specified in s. 958.04, whose
1359age does not exceed 24 years. The department may classify and
1360assign as a youthful offender any inmate who meets the criteria
1361of s. 958.04.
1362     (b)  A youthful offender who is designated as such by the
1363department and assigned to the basic training program must be
1364eligible for control release pursuant to s. 947.146.
1365     (c)  The department shall work cooperatively with the
1366Control Release Authority or the Parole Commission to effect the
1367release of an offender who has successfully completed the
1368requirements of the basic training program.
1369     (d)  Upon an offender's completion of the basic training
1370program, the department shall submit a report to the releasing
