Mom transferred to rights to dad 2 years ago through a CHIPS petition. McLeod county CPS has been working voluntarily with the family for awhile (CPS worker Daisy Vinkemeier 320-300-8724). Dad had been doing well up until recently when he relapsed. Dad was admitted to the hospital yesterday at the same time as patient due to medical issues. Due to this, McLeod County has placed patient on a health and welfare hold 8/28 until the team can get to court to take temporary custody of the patient. At this time there are not any kinship options for the pt.
