select the best answer.
yes
no

Explanation:

In cases of elder abuse or theft in a nursing - home setting, the requirements for reporting to law enforcement vary by jurisdiction and specific circumstances. However, in California, for incidents like theft from an elder in a care facility, there are mandatory reporting laws. But the 2 - hour immediate call requirement typically applies to more severe forms of abuse like physical or sexual abuse. Theft by a dementia - diagnosed resident may not trigger the 2 - hour immediate law - enforcement call requirement.

Answer:

No
