DWF #203 said Resident #49 had difficulty walking on the sidewalk on the way toward the building and needed help carrying her belongings. She also could not climb the first step on the ladder to reach the top [NAME]. The homeless shelter determined the resident was not an appropriate fit to stay, and the resident wanted to return to the facility. However, when they contacted the facility, an unidentified person (believed to be a nurse) said they could not take the resident back because they did not accept discharged residents, and Resident #49 was not allowed to return due to lack of payment. The resident was permitted to stay overnight at the shelter but then left the next day. DWF #203 revealed the current location of the resident was unknown.

She denied having any documentation of her knowledge of the discharge or an order to discharge Resident #49. Interview 07/01/25 at 12:58 P.M. with Admissions #208 and the Administrator revealed the homeless shelter did not require any information to be sent to them regarding the resident's care needs.
