title: [Problems of admission and detention of citizens in health care institutions in the Czech Republic].
abstract: The author explains in detail new legal regulations on admission to and detention in health institutions of citizens of the Czech Republic, as applied to people with mental disorders. The author describes three stages of implementation as regards admission of a person to a psychiatric in-patient department, i.e. prerequisites for involuntary psychiatric hospitalization, the stage of the intervention and the stage of admission to and detention in a psychiatric in-patient department. Attention is drawn to the fact that in the legal regulations are some inaccuracies and that practical implementation of involuntary hospitalization of the mentally sick is associated with some difficulties. It is recommended that after evaluation of experience with the implementation of the new regulations which are valid since Jan. 1, 1992 some of the regulations should be amended.
