I’ve just had to call the police on my sister now more times than I can count on my hands. She has been off meds for at least 8 months and every day off of them her brain continues to deteriorate. She threatened my mom and me. The police came and refused to take her to a hospital

You have my attention and sympathy. We dealt with this years ago. Our loved one would be violent and we would call for the Emergency Psychiatric Team. Without fail, the individual would be asleep when they arrived. Hope this helps: https://www.lacare.org/sites/default/files/dmh_psychiatric_crisis_services_1.pdf …

Also, when your Sister is eventually admitted, and regaining her health, encourage her treatment team to have her complete a Psychiatric Advance Directive as part of her Discharge Plan https://www.nrc-pad.org/states/california/ …
