| Abstrakt: |
The number of persons affected by alcoholism and/or substance abuse is constantly increasing in Israel as well the number of those suffering from severe addictions. The Israel Law for the Treatment of the Mentally Ill, 1991, does not allow the compulsory treatment of nondelinquent alcoholics and/or drug abusers who refuse treatment and who are not in a psychotic condition which includes severe and immediate danger to themselves or others. This paper analyzes and discusses the possibilities of assisting this group of patients within the framework of the present Israel legislation, other than the Law for the Treatment of the Mentally Ill of 1991, as well as focusing on modifications of this law that would be necessary to facilitate the implementation of urgent therapeutic interventions. |
