According to C1’s latest LIC602 Physician’s Report (dated 4/24/2023): C1’s primary diagnoses were HTN, CHF and DM and difficulty walking. No Psychiatric issues are noted. Doctor determined that C1 is not able to safely leave the facility unassisted because is wheelchair dependent.

According to the facility’s Absentee Notification Plan/Policy: When a client such as C1 is AWOL from the facility, staff are to search the “surrounding area.” After the unsuccessful search, staff are to notify the administrator or the Wellness Director and then law enforcement. The procedure was followed.
