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.

He was in foster care with a family and was relatively stable until the past few months, when the foster father died and since then there has been an increase in behaviors. He is unable to return to that foster home. He has very low cognitive functioning, reported to be around a 3 year old, and he was attending school only a few hours per day. He was on a lot of medications and psychiatry has optimized them during his time here.
