A Los Angeles County hospital located the family of a patient who had been hospitalized for more than 10 days and speaks an unknown language.

The patient had been at St. Francis Medical Center in Lynwood after he was found Dec. 17 on the 7600 block of Otis Avenue in Cudahy.

“I appreciate your sharing the information for us,” the hospital said on Dec. 29. “We are glad to have reunited our patient with his family.”

At the time, the man did not appear to speak English and his primary language was “not discernable.” He was apparently unable to communicate his name or any other information that would assist hospital staff with identifying him.

No further details surrounding his case or the discovery of his loved ones were released.
