According to the LIC 624s the client left all three times and returned. Staff searched the surrounding area and or called 911, C1 requested to be taken to the hospital. After one of the elopements the staff took C1 to the hospital after scraping their hand on a brick. There are no incidents surrounding the AWOLs although when then client gets upset or does not get their way that is when the clients wanted to AWOL.

C1 had a follow- up appointment with their psychiatrist on 08/06/2026 and they are in the process of changing the client's medications. Interviews with C1 revealed that they don't have a reason why they leave.
