Patient was at school when he began having hallucinations, pulled his hood over his face, then ran into a concrete wall. He was admitted to Gillette for medical management of his bleed needing surgery to repair. Initially he was calm and not demonstrating behaviors then once he was fully off all sedation, he began showing his behaviors. He verbalized thinking everything is poison so he wouldn’t eat or drink, hearing and seeing things that are not there, extremely anxious and afraid. He needed physical holding for safety this am due to behaviors that put him at risk for his safety and others in the room. Patient has a history of this behavior prior to this incident. Strong family history of schizophrenia, this is currently in question for patient. Have connected with Children’s, Abbott and Prairie Care for possibly inpatient psych placement and med management.

Patient states that she was in juvenile detention immediately prior to going to the group home. Patient has been prescribed psychotropic medicines in the past, but is not currently using any medications. Recommendation from probation officer and county social worker is juvenile detention center or psychiatric inpatient hospitalization pending long term psych placement. However, LE states they can’t bring her to JDC as she has no charges that would make that appropriate at this time without order from probation. Pt has been aggressive, verbally and physically while in the ED. She has eloped on multiple occasions and has attempted to harm herself.

EH8D-M14-4364

This patient was brought to the hospital by police for aggression and dysregulation exhibited at the group home. He was charged with 5th degree assault after injuring staff members at his group home. His behavior has persisted despite medication adjustments and behavioral plans. He struggles in settings where there is too much sensory input and lack of structure. He has been destroying property and presenting with escalating aggressive, dangerous behaviors, homicidal threats and sexualized behaviors. Despite his impulsive behaviors and subsequent harm to staff members, he displays no remorse, though some question of whether he is able to adequately engage in reality testing possibly related to intellectual disability.
He is a ward of the state. He was placed in foster care at age 6 after suffering from neglect by his biological family. Their rights have been terminated.
