Findings
The Alleged Victim (AV) was a known elopement risk, and was having difficulty transitioning to living in the facility. On or about October 12, 2024, AV left the facility with another resident who had a history of eloping. AV and another resident were seen by a staff member on their way to work, who picked the two residents up and returned them to the facility. The street the residents were on did not have sidewalks and there are drop offs on the road that are not consistently protected by guard rails. AV leaving the facility campus unattended placed AV at risk for harm. The facility's failure to ensure AV's safety is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
