Elopement — when a resident wanders out of a care home — is a real risk, particularly for people with dementia. But in the vast majority of cases in the state, the facilities are never inspected and rarely sanctioned.
They probably do, but that’s only helpful if you care what door they left out.
In my experience, there are cameras for ad hoc monitoring and if needed for legal later.
If elopement is a risk, doors are locked except main entries - unless you’re dealing with psych, the all external doors are locked.
Old folk homes and psych… They’re hiring the minimal amount of qualified staff and minimal staff period - and paying equally minimal for a job that can amount to intensive care/security guard/house keeper at an extreme pace… Shits gonna happen.
