(2017), “Procedural characteristic of preventive measures that are applied for a person in whose respect the application ofcompulsory measures of a medical nature is foreseen” [“Protsesualna kharakterystyka zapobizhnykh zakhodiv, shcho obyraiutsia dlia osoby, stosovno yakoi peredbachaetsia zastosuvannia prymusovykh zakhodiv medychnoho kharakteru”], Pravo i Bezpeka, No. 2, pp. 101–107.Надано процесуальну характеристику спеціальним запобіжним заходам, зокрема таким, як передання на піклування опікунам, близьким родичам або членам сім’ї з обов’язковим лікарським наглядом та поміщення до психіатричного закладу в умовах, що виключають небезпечну поведінку особи. Запропоновано на рівні КПК України передбачити окремі норми, присвячені врегулюванню поняття цих запобіжних заходів, порядку та строків їх застосування.The procedural characteristic to special preventive measures, such as the transfer to care of guardians, close relatives or family members with mandatory medical supervision and placement in a psychiatric institution in conditions that exclude the dangerous behavior, has been provided. Special attention is paid to the fact that today the current criminal procedural law does not define the concept of these preventive measures, the procedure for their selection or change, the terms of application. In this regard, it has been suggested to provide certain norms dealing with the settlement of this issue at the level of the Criminal Procedural Code (CPC) of Ukraine. The issue of medical supervision over a mentally ill person has been separately considered. It has been stated that the CPC of Ukraine does not contain provisions on the interpretation of this provision, the main points of appropriate medical supervision, the procedure, terms of provision and frequency of such supervision. In this regard, special attention was paid to the provisions of the Law of Ukraine “On Psychiatric Aid” that the supervision may take place both in outpatient and inpatient psychiatric care. The procedure for the use of a preventive measure in the form of placing a person in a psychiatric institution in conditions that exclude the dangerous behavior has been analyzed in detail. It has been indicated that the essential shortcoming of the current CPC of Ukraine is the lack of a clear definition of the procedure for placing a person in a psychiatric institution, the terms of application of such a measure or its continuation. At the same time, this preventive measure is actually equivalent to the most severe preventive measure – detention. Besides, a person is placed to a medical institution against his will and, most often, against the will of close relatives or family members. When applying this preventive measure to a person, the person is in conditions that restrict him in the right to liberty and personal integrity. In this regard, it has been offered to establish the period of application of this preventive measure in accordance with the rules for determining the term of detention. The author has also studied the issue of the possibility of appealing the use of preventive measures for a mentally ill person. The author has offered to provide among the decisions of an investigating judge that are to be appealed during the pre-trial investigation, a decision on the application of a preventive measure in the form of placing a person in a psychiatric institution in conditions that exclude the dangerous behavior, as well as the decision to extend the term in the Art. 309 of the CPC of Ukraine.Предоставлена процессуальная характеристика специальных мер пресечения, таких как передача на попечение опекунам, близким родственникам или членам семьи с обязательным врачебным наблюдением и помещение в психиатрическое учреждение в условиях, исключающих опасное поведение лица. Предложено на уровне УПК Украины предусмотреть отдельные нормы, посвящённые урегулированию понятия данных мер пресечения, порядка и сроков их применения
