It was first reported that Miñoso, who first appeared as Joe Cruz on the series in the 2012 pilot and have been a beloved fixture on the show ever since, would be leaving the programme this summer.
The episode opened with Cruz revealing how far he has advanced in re-learning to walk after suffering a spinal injury in the season 15 premiere, and telling his colleagues he hopes to be able to return to work in a few months time.
Later in the instalment, however, he realised how overwhelmed his wife, Chloe, appeared to be at the prospect of losing his help at home, a situation that was soon exacerbated by Chloe going into labour and giving birth to two little girls!
The character also had a sentimental moment at Otis' memorial site ahead of his departure, where he told his late friend: "I'll be with you always, brother”.
He continued: "It really was a love letter to the character, and so it just all felt really good. But at the same time, there wasn't a day that I filmed the scene in Episode 5 where I wasn't bawling my eyes out; I could barely get through them."
Miñoso first appeared on the series in the 2012 pilot as a guest star, before going on to feature in nearly every episode of the first season as a recurring star, and becoming a series regular at the start of season 2.
Following his departure, only three original cast members remain: Kinney, David Eigenberg (Herrmann), and Christian Stolte (Mouch).
