she was notified by the ADON on 12/25/24 at approximately 4:00 A.M. and she made the Administrator on

complete a nursing progress note and did not write a witness statement following the incident and staff

no other witness statements were obtained. DON also confirmed if a resident is found outside it would be
considered an elopement. DON stated she did not complete an elopement incident investigation or a

awareness are impaired.
