The other staff Illumidado Pajao was in the back doing laundry during this time and was unaware that R1 had left the home. Two community members attempted to assist R1 back in the home and R1 became agitated. The two community members assisted R1 from the street to the lawn across the street. Cornelio attempted to get R1 back in the home but R1 refused and Staff Cornelio asked two females from the community to watch R1 and they held R1 hands while staff Cornelio goes back in the home and get the other staff Illumidado to assist R1 back in the home.
