Rules about Community Treatment Orders
This easy read information sheet is about Community Treatment Orders. A Community Treatment Order is called a CTO for short. A CTO is a plan for you to get your mental health treatment in the community without having to stay in hospital. You must follow the rules set out in the plan. If you do not follow the rules you may need to go to hospital. This resource explains how CTOs work, how to get help to understand your CTO, how to change to your CTO, and what to do if you have not been given the mental health care you need.
