Work Plan Detail N -- Item 22, Physical Health of the Child N2 ACTION STEPS: Georgia will continue to require all providers to complete a Multi Discipline Team Meeting for each Comprehensive Child and Family Assessment to determine the appropriate health needs and services of all children entering foster care program within the first 30 to 60 days of the child entering care. START DATE COMPLETION DATE RESPONSIBLE PERSON(S) MEASURABLE BENCHMARKS April 2002 Dec. 2002 and on-going 5th Quarter: Per Annual Evaluation/Renegotiatio n the State requested to extend the completion date to July 2004 to allow for CPRS enhancements Joe Wassell, Betty Wrights, Millicent Houston, Leslie Cofield, Dianne Yearby, Patricia Nealy, Alice-Marie Hutchison, Linda Ladd Review at each annual on-site review. 5th Quarter: Per Annual Evaluation/Renegotiations the State requested to change to: 'Review Statistical Data Quarterly as provided through the CPRS system'. (See PIP Annual Evaluation/Renegotiation Report) ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Achieved: As Part of the First Placement/Best Placement initiative in February 2001 policy was implemented that requires every child that enters foster care in Georgia and remains in foster care after 72 hour hearing to have a First Placement, Best Placement Assessment. With the assessment it is also required that a MDT meeting is held to determine the service needs of the child and family. The MDT meeting is held within the first 30 to 60 days of a child's placement in foster care. To monitor the effectiveness of the FPBP assessment as well as the MDT, four foster care consultants have been assigned to the 12 regions. These consultants will conduct onsite reviews, which are scheduled to begin in February 2003. CPRS will also provide a monitoring mechanism in which case manager are required to enter the date the FPBP assessment was initiated and the date the MDT meeting was held and any service needs and recommendations of the child and family. The four consultants will conduct onsite reviews of randomly selected cases with various counties along with Fulton County to assess if the private providers are meeting the standards for the FPBP assessment and if the county staff is implementing the service recommendations indicated for the child and family at the MDT team meeting with the use of wrap around funds. The reviews will aide in determining if the county staff is initiating assessments on every child that enters and remains in foster care after the 72-hour hearing. Actions for next quarter: The onsite reviews are not scheduled to begin until February 2003 after training of DFCS staff and private providers. Once the reviews are conducted, compilation of data collected is Safe Futures – A Plan for Program Improvement Georgia Department of Human Resources November, 2004 Quarter 8 – Work Plan N Page 1
