Police say 70-year-old Sally Jean Fultz was discovered deceased in a creek after reportedly walking away from the Sleepy Hollow Personal Care Center on Hotel Road this week.
Fultz, who allegedly suffered from dementia and was blind, was discovered by a neighbor in a creek located 100 yards away from the facility on Wednesday.
Police say 62-year-old Connie Ann Souders was arraigned on charges of neglect of care of a dependent person and involuntary manslaughter on Wednesday and is being held at the Huntingdon County Jail in lieu of $100,000 bail.
An autopsy is to be performed on Fultz to determine the exact cause of death.
A preliminary hearing for Souders has been set next Tuesday.
