We do not do wellness checks... the residents family needs to call the police

Regardless of anyone's policy or opinion, I'll just say, do you really want to see something you wished you hadn't but now can't unsee...I've been there and I can tell you...call the cops. Don't go in yourself!

I have many seniors in my LIHTC and I will not do it. I also won’t let their family do it if I can help it. I have had ugly situations at my property as a manager and now as a Regional and just no. The police should do it if there’s a valid concern. Call the emergency contact and if they haven’t heard from them in a few days, have them call the police. Also, we will never, ever let family go in or encourage them to go in. They don’t need to see it either. We encourage they call authorities who are trained to deal with it.
