What is a 72 hour hold in Colorado Springs?

In Colorado Springs, a 72-hour hold, also known as an M-1 hold, is implemented when an individual poses a significant risk to themselves or others due to a mental health crisis. This legal measure allows for the person to be held in a treatment facility for up to 72 hours without their consent, providing a crucial window for evaluation, stabilization, and planning for next steps in treatment. It’s a critical intervention aimed at safeguarding the individual and the community, ensuring that immediate and appropriate care is available during acute crises.

This period can be a turning point, offering a moment of pause, where professionals can assess the individual’s needs and identify the most effective treatment paths forward. At Spero Recovery, we understand the critical nature of this intervention and work closely with community partners to ensure a seamless transition to ongoing support and treatment following such an intervention.
