Resident #50 was identified as a protected person and had a court appointed guardian/conservator. Written instructions were provided to the facility to indicate who was allowed to take the resident out of the facility. The facility did not follow the instructions and allowed the resident to leave the facility with a person who was not authorized to take the resident out of the facility. The court appointed guardian was not made aware the resident had left the facility. This was true for one (1) of five (5) sampled residents. Resident identifier: #50. Facility Census: 70. Findings include: a) Resident #50 It was recorded in this resident's medical record this resident had been determined by the Court to be a protected person. The Court had appointed a legal guardian to make decisions on the resident's behalf on 09/24/07. A review of the medical record, on 06/18/13, revealed a note that Resident #50 was not to leave the facility with anyone in his family. According to the note, he was only to leave with his court appointed guardian or her husband, whose name was specified. During an interview with the Administrator (Employee #83), it was verified that Resident #50 went out of the facility on 06/06/13 with an unauthorized person and went to his legal guardian's house without permission from the legal guardian. The facility had no knowledge of him leaving the facility until he returned. It was confirmed the facility did not follow the instructions of the legal guardian and failed to notify the responsible party that the resident wanted to go out of the facility with someone other than the individuals she had specified. The facility also failed to follow practices for signing out residents when they leave the facility.	2016-06-01
