An in-home provider shall make appropriate accommodations, as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act, to meet the needs of children with special needs. The in-home provider must receive documentation of the child's special needs by the parent upon the child's enrollment.
1. When a child with special needs is being cared for, the in-home provider shall consult with the child's parents, and, with the parent's permission, the child's source of professional health care, or, when appropriate, other health and professional consultants to gain an understanding of the child's individual needs. The in-home provider shall receive a written health care plan from the child's medical provider or parent with information related to the child's special needs, such as a description, definition of the diagnosis, and general information for emergency and required care such as usual medications and procedures. 2. In-home providers shall receive proper instructions as to the nature of the child's special needs and potential for growth and development. N.D. Admin Code 75-03-07-05
