What is the difference between a Form 1 and Form 2? Unlike a Form 1, a Form 2 does not allow someone to be detained for 72 hours. It only allows for the person to be brought to the hospital for assessment. After that, the person must be willing to stay voluntarily, placed on a Form 1 by a doctor or allowed to leave.
