Patient was at school when he began having hallucinations, pulled his hood over his face, then ran into a concrete wall. He was admitted to Gillette for medical management of his bleed needing surgery to repair. Initially he was calm and not demonstrating behaviors then once he was fully off all sedation, he began showing his behaviors. He verbalized thinking everything is poison so he wouldn’t eat or drink, hearing and seeing things that are not there, extremely anxious and afraid. He needed physical holding for safety this am due to behaviors that put him at risk for his safety and others in the room. Patient has a history of this behavior prior to this incident.

Patient with autism and agitation sent from his new group home awaiting placement options. pt’s DD CM Deqa (612-472-2572) to gather more information regarding the Exception Bed Referral. Deqa shared that she was told that she can either refer for the Exception Bed or MFOC but not both. She is moving forward with the MFOC referral, as it would be a long term placement which would be better for the pt in the long run. She has made it known that the referral to MFOC is urgent. If the MFOC referral is denied, Deqa plans to either push on DHS as they have had an opening for 1 year and have not filled it, and/or pursue the Exception Bed. Deqa said she submitted for the Minnesota State- Operated Community Services (MSOCS) referral on 10/15. DHS Complex Transitions Team referral made on 10/15/24.
