MHF-M14-6607

Youth came to our ED this time on 2/21 after physical aggression at his GH where he injured staff. This is the 3rd time he has boarded with Fairview in the past month. The GH has taken him back previously however are reluctant this time and are considering an immediate suspension but may be willing to take him back one more time with additional supports. Trying to get started with Youth ACT for additional support, they are reviewing but have concerns related to DD and if they are a proper fit. County is also trying to pursue CABHH and PRTF simultaneously as they feel he needs a higher LOC but have not gotten acceptance. Was previously at Northwoods PRTF for 1.5 year. Looking for any additional supports that could be offered to this youth in the GH to make it successful. Currently has 3:1 staffing at the GH, psychiatry, therapy multiple times per week, has had MCCP behavioral analyst in the past and another referral is being made there, seeing if he may qualify for Youth ACT, and if not ACT looking to connect him to MIDB for psychiatry.

CH8SCH-M12-6473

Patient presented to the ER 1/21. Patient is familiar to us. Patient has a complex psychosocial history with prior CPS involvement and a chaotic home environment. Patient typically does well in the ER & hospital setting but struggles at home with severe aggression and behavioral dysregulation in relation to conflict with parents. Patient does not appear to comprehend the severity of his actions and feels like his actions are justified (which appears to be related to his level of functioning). Patient likely needs a crisis respite placement/group home placement, but his CADI waiver and insurance are on hold while transferring to Benton County.

MHF-F13-6356

Youth came into our ER on 12/2 after an episode of aggression at the Crisis Home. The crisis home will be willing to take them back in the future, but not until the other individual in the home has moved out, which won’t be taking place until end of January, They also want to have increased staffing and put rights restrictions into place. It will be almost 2 months before that can happen. Looking for an interim plan for them. Pt is open to waiver, has mild intellectual disability. Also has CMH, but treatment placements are not being explored as pt has been to those in the past (Northwood, Chelida, and Grafton) and more recently treatment placements have all denied them, so primarily looking at waiver paid placements.

Youth came into our ED 10/31 after an altercation in the car with Mom, on the way from being discharged from RTC after 6 months there. Mom reports she can not take her home. County would prefer higher level of care than RTC however she has been denied by Grafton, so only 1 potential option remains and referral was made. MNchoices is being completed today 11/5. Exploring all options currently. Has recent sexual exploitation history.
