[quote=Anonymous]I work in a memory care. We have had a few residents become violent to staff, visitors and other vulnerable residents. They were sent to another facility for medication management with the idea that they would return when they were stable. Two weren’t able to return, and one did return and has been manageable since. If violent behavior compromises the health and well-being of other residents, it isn’t sustainable, unfortunately. Locked units are their own little community and a volatile and unpredictable resident impacts everyone greatly. Also, if they are constantly waiting at the locked door to escape, anytime someone comes in or out of the unit, be it a visitor, physical therapist, activity coordinator, etc. there is a risk of escape and the staff cannot stand st the door 24x7; they need to be able to cate for other residents. But it’s heartbreaking, for sure.[/quote]
