(210 ILCS 49/3-103)

Sec. 3-103. Consumers' moneys and possessions. To the extent possible, each consumer shall be responsible for his or her own moneys and personal property or possessions in his or her own immediate living quarters unless deemed inappropriate by a physician or other facility clinician and so documented in the consumer's record. In the event the moneys or possessions of a consumer come under the supervision of the facility, either voluntarily on the part of the consumer or so ordered by a facility physician or other clinician, each facility to whom a consumer's moneys or possessions have been entrusted shall comply with the following:

(1) no facility shall commingle consumers' moneys or possessions with those of the facility; consumers' moneys and possessions shall be maintained separately, intact, and free from any liability that the facility incurs in the use of the facility's funds;

(2) the facility shall provide reasonably adequate space for the possessions of the consumer; the facility shall provide a means of safeguarding small items of value for its consumers in their rooms or in any other part of the facility so long as the consumers have reasonable and adequate access to such possessions; and

(3) the facility shall make reasonable efforts to prevent loss and theft of consumers' possessions; those efforts shall be appropriate to the particular facility and particular living setting within each facility and may include staff training and monitoring, labeling possessions, and frequent possession inventories; the facility shall develop procedures for investigating complaints concerning theft of consumers' possessions and shall promptly investigate all such complaints.
