| (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section,
a child-care administrator can be an administrator for two residential
child-care operations, including a child-placing agency, if:
(1) Both operations are in good standing with Licensing;
(2) The size and scope of the operations are manageable
by one person, which is clarified in the written professional staffing
plans;
(3) The child-placing agency, if applicable, is not
managing more than 25 foster homes;
(4) The person also holds a valid Child-Placing Agency
Administrator License, if applicable; and
(5) The general residential operations and/or RTCs
are contiguous. A child-placing agency does not have to be contiguous.
(b) An operation that provides emergency care services
must designate an employee in the staffing plan that is solely responsible
for administering those services. This employee must have the experience
and background to be able to perform the child-care administrator
responsibilities. See §748.535 of this title (relating to What
responsibilities must the child-care administrator have?). A designated
employee, other than the child-care administrator for the operation,
is not required if the emergency care services program has a capacity
of not more than 30 children.
