“Chemical restraint” means the administration of drugs to a person for the specific and exclusive purpose of controlling an acute or episodic behavior that places the person or others at a risk of harm when less restrictive alternative intervention techniques have failed to limit or control the behavior. The term does not include the administration of drugs prescribed by a physician, physician assistant or advanced practice registered nurse as standard treatment for the mental or physical condition of the person.
