In that circumstance the | 8 | | placement shall be held pending a court hearing on the | 9 | | Department's report. Otherwise, upon completion of the | 10 | | placement process, the
sheriff shall be notified and shall | 11 | | transport the defendant to the designated
facility. The | 12 | | placement may be ordered either on an inpatient or an | 13 | | outpatient
basis.
| 14 | | (c) If the defendant's disability is physical, the court | 15 | | may order him
placed under the supervision of the Department of | 16 | | Human
Services
which shall place and maintain the defendant in | 17 | | a suitable treatment facility
or program, or the court may | 18 | | order him placed in an appropriate public or
private facility | 19 | | or treatment program which has agreed to provide treatment

as to the probability of the defendant's attaining | 15 | | fitness within a period
of one year from the date of the | 16 | | finding of unfitness. If the report indicates
