The client wuld predictably relapse if mved t a lesser level f care. Psychiatric r medical cmplicatins: Dcumentatin in the medical recrd indicates an intervening medical r psychiatric event that was serius enugh t interrupt rehabilitatin r treatment, but the client is again prgressing in treatment.
