Section 413-020-0236 - Development, Documentation, and Termination of a Supervision Plan

(1) After the caseworker has reviewed the CANS screening results for a child or young adult living with a certified family that indicates the child or young adult has enhanced supervision needs and qualifies for a level of care payment, the caseworker must:

(a) Contact the certified family to explain the supervision needs identified in the CANS screening results; and

(b) During a meeting with the certified family, the child or young adult, as appropriate, and others who may participate in a supervision plan, explain the supervision requirements necessary to maintain the safety and support the well-being of the child or young adult and develop a supervision plan that meets the supervision needs of the child or young adult.

(A) If the child or young adult qualifies for Level 1 (moderate needs), the supervision plan must require the certified family to provide an environment with the additional support, direction, observation, and guidance from the certified family necessary to ensure a child or young adult's safety and well-being, beyond the level of supervision that typically is required for a child or young adult of the same age.

(B) If the child or young adult qualifies for Level 2 (intermediate needs), the supervision plan must require the certified family to provide a structured environment, additional support, direction, observation, and guidance necessary to ensure a child or young adult's safety and well-being, beyond the level of supervision that typically is required for a child or young adult of the same age.

(C) If the child or young adult qualifies for Level 3 (advanced needs), the supervision plan must require the certified family to provide a highly structured environment, additional support, direction, observation, and guidance necessary to ensure a child or young adult's safety and well-being, beyond the level of supervision that typically is required for a child or young adult of the same age.

(2) The supervision plan must include:

(a) The supervision actions or activities that are to be provided by the certified family and other individuals to meet the child or young adult's identified needs. Examples of appropriate supervision actions or activities may include, but are not limited to: proactive use of space, use of routine, structure of the environment, positive reinforcement, and de-escalation techniques;

(b) The actions and assistance the Department will provide to support the certified family in addressing the supervision needs of the child or young adult and to maintain the child or young adult in the home;

(c) The actions the child or young adult will take to support the supervision plan;

(d) The persons responsible for monitoring the child or young adult's supervision needs and the supervision actions and activities;

(e) How the persons responsible for monitoring the child or young adult's supervision needs and the supervision actions and activities are to communicate with each other; and

(f) A requirement that the supervision plan be reviewed during the first monthly face-to-face contact described in OAR 413-080-0054 after the date the supervision plan is signed by the individuals identified in section (3) of this rule.

(3) The supervision plan must be signed by:

(a) The caseworker;

(b) The certified family;

(c) The child or young adult, if able; and

(d) Any other individuals who are to provide specific actions or activities in the supervision plan.

(4) The supervision plan must be approved by the caseworker's supervisor.

(5) The caseworker must provide a copy of the signed supervision plan to the certified family and the certified family's certifier, and file a copy in the Department's information system.

(6) When a child or young adult has a supervision plan and the CANS screening results indicate that the child or young adult no longer has enhanced supervision needs and no longer qualifies for a level of care payment, the caseworker must:

(a) Terminate the supervision plan;

(b) Document in the Department's information system the date the supervision plan terminated and the reason the plan terminated; and

(c) Notify the certified family and the certified family's certifier that the supervision plan terminated and the reason the plan terminated.
