Answer:

Treatment facility staff can be guilty of false imprisonment if the patient is arrested at the facility without the need for treatment.

Explanation:

False arrest is considered a very serious crime, and is characterized by a situation where someone is prevented (by someone else) from leaving or walking in a certain area, ie the person is detained. However, it is important to remember that not every detention can be accused of false imprisonment, in some cases the law allows a person to be detained against his will. Facility staff can be convicted of false imprisonment if the patient being prevented from leaving does not need treatment, but if the patient needs treatment it is irresponsible for the facility to let him out.
