I am reaching out to this community for some urgent family guidance.

My sibling is currently navigating a mental health crisis in France (specifically the Besançon area).They had a severe psychotic episode on 4/12, and are scheduled to be transferred to the Novillars hospital on 4/20 (right now they are in the emergency room in a university hospital) .

We are American, and have had difficulty getting answers to our questions. Will my sibling be able to leave the Novillars hospital when they want? Is there a way to require them to stay in the Novillars hospital against their will only if they are showing signs of psychosis? Is there a way to specify multiple people as my sibling's Guardian (their French partner, and parents)?

If you can help, please comment !
