+Solution
When reasoning with the son we try to put him in his father’s shoes and thoroughly explain how the conditions are hazardous for his father. And show him legal documents that allow us on to the premises. Someone on staff actually does speak Russian along with using translate we are able to communicate with the man.

+Anticipation of events: The son will finally calm down once he realizes we are in fact the real deal. Then, allow us into the house and we will begin identifying the elderly man’s condition.
Justification statement: When providing legal documentation people are more prone to comply.
Risks associated with your proposed solution:The son may call the police, and we could get written up.
