(name withheld) Street, Ashley Burrow, for a 92-year-old male evaluation, potential mental health transport, and definitely sign on 1228. Lozern, 9, Bravo. 9, bravo. We're on the way. Copy on the way, 1228. It's going to be a 92-year-old male. Apparently he's fell multiple times. They're stating he's unwell. His feet are swollen. He has dementia. He's also refusing to care for himself. They want to do a medical 302 on him, but they don't have any current paperwork. Right now he's not combative, but they said that can change. Okay. We're familiar. We were there last week. If you want to send PDO or two, they're not quite understanding how the 302 process works.
