Tenant moves unexpected- Leaves all Items. Eviction needed or not?

[Brent Raber]

A friend has a rental property in Marysville, Ohio. Three months remaining on the 12 month contract. She texts the landlord and says " I am no longer able to care for you home and have moved out of the property." She stated that she had a mental breakdown and is in a hospital. The landlord calls the hospital and they say that she is not admitted there. At least not in her name. She left basically everything in the house except personal belongings... food in the refrigerator, dishes in the kitchen, etc.... Does the landlord need to procede with an official eviction process in order to legally remove her "stuff" in her house or not?
