When a resident goes missing from a nursing home or assisted living facility, every minute counts. This **Nursing Home Missing Resident Report** template helps care facilities document critical information quickly and comprehensively, ensuring search teams, family members, and local authorities have everything they need to locate the resident safely.

Designed specifically for **senior care facilities, memory care units, and assisted living communities**, this form captures essential details including dementia status, mobility limitations, favorite locations, physical descriptions, and a complete family emergency contact chain. The structured format ensures nothing is overlooked during a stressful situation.

**Paperform** makes this critical workflow seamless. The form's clean, professional design works perfectly on mobile devices, allowing staff to submit reports immediately from anywhere in the facility. Use conditional logic to show relevant questions based on the resident's cognitive status, and set up instant notifications to alert management and security teams the moment a report is submitted.

Connect this form to **Stepper** (stepper.io) to automatically trigger your facility's missing resident protocol: send alert emails to family contacts, notify local authorities, log the incident in your facility management system, and create a timestamped audit trail for compliance documentation. You can also integrate with your staff scheduling tools to quickly identify who was on duty and coordinate search teams.

For facilities managing multiple locations or those requiring detailed incident reporting, this template provides a professional, SOC 2 compliant solution that keeps sensitive resident information secure while ensuring rapid response when it matters most.
