Youth came to our ED on 9/4/25 from a group home after reportedly ingesting extra medications. It’s unclear how she got the medications, but her custodian does not want her returning to the home at this time. IP was initially recommended however she was declined from multiple IP units due to feeling there would be no benefit from IPMH and due to her acuity. She has since stabilized while waiting in the ED, and is now being recommended for discharge. This is this youth’s 7th time boarding in Fairview EDs. There is a tentative placement set up for the 22nd, looking for potential interim plans.
