Sec. 3-10-2. Examination of persons committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice.
(a) A person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be examined in
regard to his medical, psychological, social, educational and vocational
condition and history, including the use of alcohol and other drugs,
the circumstances of his offense and any other
information as the Department of Juvenile Justice may determine.
(a-5) Upon admission of a person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice, the Department of Juvenile Justice must provide the person with appropriate information concerning HIV and AIDS in writing, verbally, or by video or other electronic means. The Department of Juvenile Justice shall develop the informational materials in consultation with the Department of Public Health. At the same time, the Department of Juvenile Justice also must offer the person the option of being tested, at no charge to the person, for infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Pre-test information shall be provided to the committed person and informed consent obtained as required in subsection (q) of Section 3 and Section 5 of the AIDS Confidentiality Act. The Department of Juvenile Justice may conduct opt-out HIV testing as defined in Section 4 of the AIDS Confidentiality Act. If the Department conducts opt-out HIV testing, the Department shall place signs in English, Spanish and other languages as needed in multiple, highly visible locations in the area where HIV testing is conducted informing inmates that they will be tested for HIV unless they refuse, and refusal or acceptance of testing shall be documented in the inmate's medical record. The Department shall follow procedures established by the Department of Public Health to conduct HIV testing and testing to confirm positive HIV test results. All testing must be conducted by medical personnel, but pre-test and other information may be provided by committed persons who have received appropriate training. The Department, in conjunction with the Department of Public Health, shall develop a plan that complies with the AIDS Confidentiality Act to deliver confidentially all positive or negative HIV test results to inmates or former inmates. Nothing in this Section shall require the Department to offer HIV testing to an inmate who is known to be infected with HIV, or who has been tested for HIV within the previous 180 days and whose documented HIV test result is available to the Department electronically. The
testing provided under this subsection (a-5) shall consist of a test approved by the Illinois Department of Public Health to determine the presence of HIV infection, based upon recommendations of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. If the test result is positive, a reliable supplemental test based upon recommendations of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shall be
administered. Also, upon the admission of a person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice, the Department of Juvenile Justice must inform the person of the Department's obligation to provide the person with medical care.

orders in individual cases should be modified or continued. This
examination shall be made with respect to every person at least once
annually.
(d) A record of the treatment decision, including any modification
thereof and the reason therefor, shall be part of the committed person's
master record file.
(e) The Department of Juvenile Justice shall by regular mail and telephone or electronic message
notify the parent, guardian, or nearest relative of any person committed to
the Department of Juvenile Justice of his or her physical location and any change of his or her physical location.

(730 ILCS 5/3-10-5) (from Ch. 38, par. 1003-10-5)
Sec. 3-10-5. Transfers to the Department of Human Services.
(a) If a person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice meets the
standard for admission of a minor to a mental health facility or is suitable
for admission to a developmental disability facility, as these terms are
used in the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, the
Department may transfer the person to an appropriate State
hospital or institution of the Department of Human Services
for a period not to exceed 6 months, if the person consents in writing to
the transfer. The person shall be advised of his right not to consent, and
if he does not consent, the transfer may be effected only by
commitment under paragraph (e) of this Section.
(b) The parent, guardian or nearest relative and the attorney of record
shall be advised of his right to object. If an
objection is made, the

Section. Notice of the transfer shall be mailed to the person's parent,
guardian or nearest relative marked for delivery to addressee only at his
last known address by certified mail with return receipt requested together
with written notification of the manner and time within which he may object
to the transfer. Objection to the transfer must be made by
the parent, guardian
or nearest relative within 15 days of receipt of the notification of
transfer, by written notice of the objection to the Director of Juvenile Justice or
chief administrative officer of the institution or facility of the
Department of Juvenile Justice where the person was confined.

or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is committed to a hospital or facility of the
Department of Human Services under this Section, the Director of Juvenile Justice shall so notify the committing juvenile court.
(d) Nothing in this Section shall limit the right of the Director
of Juvenile Justice or the chief administrative officer of any institution
or facility to utilize the emergency admission provisions of the Mental
Health and Developmental Disabilities Code with respect to any person in
his custody or care. The transfer of a person to an institution or facility
of the Department of Human Services under
paragraph (a) of this Section does not discharge the person from the control
of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
(e) If the person does not consent to his transfer to the Department of
Human Services or if a
person objects under paragraph (b) of this Section, or if the Department of
Human Services determines
that a transferred person requires
admission to the Department of Human Services
for more than 6 months for any reason, the Director of Juvenile Justice shall file a petition in the circuit court of the county in which
the institution or facility is located requesting admission of the person
to the Department of Human Services. A
certificate of a clinical psychologist, licensed clinical social
worker who is a qualified examiner as defined in Section 1-122 of the
Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, or psychiatrist,
or, if admission to
a developmental disability facility is sought, of a physician that the
person is in need of commitment to the Department of Human Services for treatment or habilitation
shall be attached
to the petition. Copies of the petition shall be furnished to the named
person, his parent, or guardian or nearest relative, the committing
court, and to the state's attorneys of the county in which the institution
or facility of the Department of Juvenile Justice from which the person was transferred
is located and the county from which the named person was committed to
the Department of Juvenile Justice.
(f) The court shall set a date for a hearing on the petition within the
time limit set forth in the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities
Code. The hearing shall be conducted in the manner prescribed by the Mental
Health and Developmental Disabilities Code. If the person is found to be
in need of commitment to the Department of Human Services for treatment or
habilitation, the court may
commit him to
that Department.
(g) In the event that a person committed to the Department under the
Juvenile Court Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is committed to facilities
of the Department of Human Services under paragraph (e) of this Section, the
Director of Juvenile Justice shall petition the committing juvenile court for an
order terminating the Director's custody.
