(a) You must complete a preliminary service plan that
addresses the immediate needs of a child within 72 hours, such as
supervision requirements, enrolling the child in school, or obtaining
needed medical care or clothing.
(b) In addition, for a child receiving treatment services
the preliminary service plan must include:
(1) A description of the child's immediate treatment
and care needs;
(2) A description of the child's immediate educational,
medical, and dental needs, including possible side effects of medications
or treatment prescribed to the child;
(3) A description of how you will meet the child's
needs, including any necessary increased supervision or follow-up
actions of possible side effects of medication or treatment provided
to the child;
(4) The identification of any issues or concerns the
child may have that could escalate a child's behavior. Identification
of a child's issues or concerns must serve to avoid the use of unnecessary
emergency behavior interventions with the child. Child concerns may
include issues with food, eye contact, physical touch, personal property,
or certain topics; and
(5) A designation of who will be responsible for meeting
each of the child's needs.
(c) The plan must be compatible with the information
included in the child's admission assessment.
(d) You must document the plan in the child's record.
(e) You must inform each professional level service
provider and caregiver working with a child about the child's preliminary
service plan.
(f) You must implement and follow the preliminary service
plan.
