Psychology / Forensic Psychiatrie
German term or phrase: Entlassungsurlaub
Context: Sie (die Unterbringung) endet planmäßig, bei entsprechender Besserung und Minimierung der Gefährlichkeit, im Anschluss an den Entlassungsurlaub (i.d.R. 6 Monate).
Text: German

I assume this is a form of "leave" perhaps "terminal leave" as it would be the last "Urlaub" before being released from the Clinic but I am not sure.
Any ideas from my colleagues?
