Can't get him admitted unless he tries to kill someone or harm himself and need evidence of this before a hospital will admit him.
In fairness, to be allowed to admit someone to a facility against their will should require a bit of a heightened standard. I can easily see a lot of children/grandchildren abusing This to use mom/dad or grandparents’ home and money while they are institutionalized.
Not suggesting that is the case here, but it’s not hard to imagine scenarios why there should be at least some heightened standard.

I can see this point of view, but when someone is diagnosed bipolar or schizophrenic and they refuse treatment they are causing more harm to themselves and society at large. It is a difficult balance but if your loved one is deteriorating before your eyes and you can’t help , more than one person is affected.
