AH-F16-7617

Previous psychiatric diagnoses: PTSD, depression, anxiety, eating disorder, ADHD, complex trauma, suicide attempts, self-harm

Patient presented to the ED after reporting SI to their guardian. Patient reports a near daily experience of SI and AH/VH of his brother who abused him. Therefore, this is not a new symptom. Patient reports that yesterday there was no particular trigger for his SI and AH/VH, that he took a PRN medication, which usually works for him, and then called his guardian who told him to go to the ED.

While in the ED (and as is common in the community), patient will attempt to use clothing to strangle themselves when dysregulated, often revolving around trauma.

Guardian is Dakota County (Tori Thompson). No contact order for anyone in the biological family.

Hospitalized in ND for a full year and a recent over month stay at Children’s for placement from which they were placed in Mn Care Counseling Crisis home.

Crisis home has given an immediate termination notice and state as they are a crisis home they do not require a 30 day notice, due to inability to keep pt safe. They report running into traffic as a particular concern.

Recommendation is discharge with ongoing outpatient support coping skills, distress tolerance, emotional regulation and behavioral support. Pt presentation appears to be baseline and unlikely to mitigated by an admission which may conversely increase risk of maladaptive coping skills and hospital seeking behavior.

He had eloped from his home last week, police found him and when brought home he physically aggressed toward his mother, so police brought him to JDC, they reported they could not keep him because Mom was not pressing charges so he was brought to the Bridge shelter, where he was discharged from for exposing himself to others and was then brought to the ER.
