Youth came to our ED on 6/13 straight from a Missouri RTC that he was discharged from due to aggressive behavior. Came to us as there was no other place for him to go. Has CMH and they are reporting they are not seeking another placement at this time and recommend pt return to adoptive Mom, or we contact CPS. Mom also requested we contact CPS so she can get further assistance and potentially out of home placement. No waiver at this time.

This youth has boarded with us 4x prior. She was most recently boarding with us last week 5/28 and a day later physically aggressed on 4 of our ED nurses and was brought to JDC. She was discharged from JDC due to a previous rule 20, brought to another ED who discharged her immediately and returned to us again, only due to lack of placement. County is working on renewing her MNchoices, searching for waiver placement, out of state and is seeing if management would approve a hotel crisis respite.
