An elderly Iowa woman was taken to a hospital where she passed away after being found outside in sub-zero temperatures.
A department news release Wednesday said that investigators do not know how long Stewart had been outside when she was found.
In Iowa, assisted living programs for people with dementia are required to have an operating alarm system on each exit door. Courtyard Estates at Hawthorne Crossing was fined $1,500 in 2020 for not having policies or procedures for its alarm system after a male resident was able to leave the home and climb over a secure fence.
