Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to restrict the use of the writ of habeas corpus. If a writ of habeas corpus be obtained in behalf of any person confined in a hospital or facility and receiving treatment for drug addiction, and if it appears at the hearing on the return of such writ that the condition of such person is such as to require further treatment for drug addiction, then such person shall be remanded to the care and custody of such hospital or facility until such time as it appears that such person is no longer in need of institutional care or treatment for drug addiction as provided in this act and may properly be discharged.
