I haven't seen all the players in this saga. However, a patient whose room is not far from mine, is under the rather worried and definitely harried scrutiny of nursing, program managers, and other staff. Calling this patient eccentric is ... euphemistic.
The patient is almost routinely flunking the weekly room inspections, what with clothing all over the floor and I forget what else, never puts anything away. Until, having flunked room inspection, they are forced to do so.
In the meanwhile, this patient has so desperate an attachment to their pet dog that a relative has sort of moved into a nearby hotel, WITH the dog, and the patient spends nights and weekends, not in their room, but at the hotel with the relative and the dog. This family has the smarts, at least, to keep the dog away from the clinic, so I've never observed the dog, just had second-hand info about the patient being with the dog.
The patient is not from this area, and is also desperately homesick, crying themselves to sleep until hitting upon this scheme of the hotel room, the relative, and the pet dog. Mind you, this clinic is NOT cheap, and neither are the hotels, not the ones where a pet dog is permitted anyhow. So this family is tight-knit and, erm, spendthrift??
As for me, for the time being I have negotiated that I will stay on my present treatment plan. Not step up to that more intense nursing option. And, with the understanding that I keep my clinical team informed, I will stay out of the group therapy sessions: these are voluntary anyhow, no one can force me to attend. And as long as I stay in touch with, and work with, my doctor, my therapist, my nurse, my social worker, my program manager and so on, then I can pick and choose, and work out how to continue treatment. We'll see how this goes for a while.
