Additional ResCare provided questions and answers <br />28. There was a question about the number of police calls and the frequency,. <br />ResCare — While there are some at each location we try to keep them limited and will work with <br />the police department to come up with a plan to limit the disruption to the community. <br />29. AWOLs Absent Without Leave <br />ResCare — We are required to call police if there is a missing person after 24 hours because they <br />are vulnerable adults under the law. I think most people will not be gone from the facility <br />since there is limited transportation. When they do leave it will be purposeful in that it will be <br />to see family or friends and family or go for a walk with staff and return. <br />30. There was another question about ResCare's smokingj2oRc: . <br />ResCare — We do not allow smoking in the building but do not ban smoking on the property. <br />We will provide a designated smoking area and will build a shelter for them with a fence. We <br />do work with the clients on smoking cessation with the use of patches and other helpful <br />medications available if the person wants to quit. For clients who have a mental illness it is a <br />way to cope with symptoms and we have chosen not to take that away from them. I spoke <br />with one client who said he is working on sobriety and struggling with that and to take on <br />smoking cessation too would be more that he could manage. <br />m <br />
