When must a physician's order be obtained for a resident's confinement in a locked unit?

Within 6 hours
Within 12 hours
Within 18 hours
Within 24 hours

The correct answer is: Within 12 hours

A physician's order must be obtained for a resident's confinement in a locked unit within 12 hours. This is crucial because it ensures that the resident's care and well-being are being properly managed under the guidance and supervision of a medical professional. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the standard requirement of obtaining a physician's order within the specified timeframe of 12 hours.
