Full text

If an elderly person does not consent to the receipt of reasonable and necessary protective services, or if such person withdraws the consent, such services shall not be provided or continued, except that if the commissioner has reason to believe that such elderly person lacks capacity to consent, the commissioner may seek court authorization to provide necessary services, as provided in section 17b-456.
