(a) The requirements of this standard apply to each
standard in this chapter in which a juvenile supervision officer is
required to observe and record a resident's behavior, including §§343.286,
343.288, 343.290, 343.338, 343.348, 343.350, 343.402, 343.438, 343.442,
343.632, and 343.634 of this title.
(b) All such observations shall be documented by the
juvenile supervision officer who made the actual observation. The
documentation shall indicate the exact hour and minute the visual
observation was made and a general description of the resident's behavior.
(c) If a facility uses an electronic system to record
observations of residents, the system shall have the capability to:
(1) allow juvenile supervision officers to record a
general description of the resident's observed behavior; and
(2) print out the observation records.
(d) If a facility uses an electronic system that does
not allow for the resident's behavior to be recorded at the time the
observation is made, the facility shall maintain a supplemental log
in which the officer conducting the observations documents, at the
time of the observation, the resident's behavior.
