When I was in Acadia, the doctor went home for the night and there was no one to sign my release when my 16 hour hold was up. Three employees stood next to each other and lied to me saying that Maine had no rules about how long a patient could be held involuntarily. None of them would commit it to writing or even initial something I wrote indicating that I was understanding them correctly.
So yeah. Northern light employees will not only knowingly break the law but they will also happily lie to your face about it.
