Mom transferred to rights to dad 2 years ago through a CHIPS petition. McLeod county CPS has been working voluntarily with the family for awhile (CPS worker Daisy Vinkemeier 320-300-8724). Dad had been doing well up until recently when he relapsed. Dad was admitted to the hospital yesterday at the same time as patient due to medical issues. Due to this, McLeod County has placed patient on a health and welfare hold 8/28 until the team can get to court to take temporary custody of the patient. At this time there are not any kinship options for the pt.

Came to ED 8/29 when adoptive parents called 911 after pt posted a video to social media claiming her adoptive father was abusing her. Parents are refusing to let youth return home as they are scared of further false accusations. They are requesting CPS get involved and take custody of youth, as they no longer want to have it. Has some history of SIB in the past. Waiting for CPS to determine next steps.

She had been residing at Von Wald 180 Degrees since May. Big escalation on 8/19 and brought to ED. Unable to return to Von Wald; parents are guardians but unwilling to have her in their home (possibly homeless?) and want to terminate their parent rights. Mom is difficult to get in touch with and wants all communication through her attorney.

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.

Youth came to our ED 5/28 from home after an escalation. Mom unable to take him back currently. Dakota County CPS has a custody hearing today, 6/4/25. If given custody, they will be working on foster/shelter placement and kinship. All have been explored in the past for this kiddo, but previously denied due to behaviors. Kiddo has trauma history and does very well in school, only behavioral at home. Unsure if there is a current DA- team is looking into it. Its reported by CPS that they tried to get CMH CM for kiddo 4 months ago but that was denied. No waiver currently.

Went to VOA Bar None, and CABHH since then, and has a potential spot at Northwoods PRTF for July- do not have a set admit date. Looking for shelter or other setting for an interim plan to get him out of the ED. Has had MNchoices in the past but do not believe it is current, due to frequent switch of placements, none being waiver.

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.
