Elopement is one of the most cited and dangerous risks in nursing homes, especially among residents with dementia. Preventing it takes more than alarms and locked doors, it requires early identification of high-risk individuals, environmental design that supports safe movement, and a well-trained, alert care team. This blog outlines how Qsource helps facilities build proactive, rights-respecting prevention plans that align with CMS regulations. From behavior monitoring and staff education to QAPI-driven reviews, Qsource ensures safety without compromising resident dignity or autonomy.
