Findings: The Alleged Victim (AV) was new to the facility. On or about May 4, 2024, AV was missing, and was found out in the courtyard, AV didn't know how he/she got out there. On or about May 6, 2024, staff were advised that the fire safety door and the facility courtyard gate were broken. The batteries for the fire door have been dead since at least April 29, 2024, meaning the safety door has been unlocked 24 hours a day since that time. AV went missing on or about May 6, 2024 and was found approximately a half mile from the facility by police. The freeway is 300 feet from the facility and there is no fencing preventing anyone from walking into freeway traffic. It was approximately 50 degrees outside, and when AV returned, his/her hands were very cold. The facility's failure to provide a safe environment placed AV at risk for serious harm. The facility's failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
