A client went missing from a long-term care facility and an emergency code was called. After a search of one hour, the client was discovered in a utility room that should have been inaccessible.

When responding to this event, staff should:
1. Fill out an incident report, with the goal of preventing a similar event in the future.
2. Hold a facility-wide meeting to identify strategies for making improvements to the safety of residents.
3. Document strategies in the client's health record for preventing future incidents.
4. Complete an incident report in order to determine who was primarily responsible for the event.
