Senior Advisor Tara and Nonprofit Specialist Julia discuss scenarios where caregivers must cope with a loose or missing resident. We cover three areas of focus when responding to a loose resident, discuss what to consider if you can't find a resident, and offer suggestions for what you can do before and after an event to best protect your residents!
