This was further influenced by the person\u2019s plan that was agreed upon by a new case manager and guardian that allowed for 4 hours of alone time at home.  This included their bedroom and further supported by providers having to allow for person\u2019s privacy in their room as required by 245D rights and person-centered planning and directed in the CSSP.    The person eloping from the home without staff knowledge was also impacted by the person being new to the home with no history of elopement resulting in staff having no reason for concern that they would elope. Another influence of person eloping without staff knowledge was the home was a 4-person residence, staffed by one person and during this time staff was assisting other people.   \r\n\r\nThe person being served had expectations that they would be able to visit with family and friends in the area when they moved into the group home.   COVID 19-Pandemic resulted in an Executive stay at home order and MDH guidelines limiting the persons opportunity to go into the community resulting in increased anxiety that was reported by staff, influencing the person eloping from the home.  This was further supported by providers being unsure what guidance to follow during COVID-19 therefore impacting the amount of community outings being offered to the people they serve.  Person being served had unsupervised time in the community only when at work.   Health issues from wearing a mask at work impacted person\u2019s ability to work in the community resulting in limited time in the community is an additional influence of the person eloping from the home.  The worker\u2019s focus of attention at the time was on the three individuals in the communal area while the other resident exercised their right to privacy in their room which is supported and required by 245D.","created_by":81,"updated_by":81,"updated_at":"5\/25\/2021 9:42:24 am","created_at":"5\/25\/2021 9:42:24 am","id":14983}
