==What if a voluntary patient wants to leave the hospital?==
To leave a hospital, voluntary patients need only to inform the nursing staff that they want to be discharged, and in most cases that person will be free to leave. However, the hospital may ask the person to sign a “Discharge against Medical Advice” form.
