OAR 413-015-0450: Develop an Ongoing Safety Plan

(1) At the completion of the CPS assessment when the CPS worker determines, through an analysis of the safety related information, that a child is unsafe , the CPS worker and permanency worker must develop and document an ongoing safety plan unless completing a CPS assessment involving a resource family or respite provider certified by Child Welfare. The purpose of the ongoing safety plan is to control the impending danger safety threats as they are uniquely occurring within a particular family. (2) Requirements for an Ongoing Safety Plan. When developing an ongoing safety plan, the CPS worker and permanency worker must assure all requirements in OAR 413-015-0432, "Develop Safety Plans," are met and: (a) Use a Family Engagement Meeting unless a supervisor approved an exception; (b) Include conditions for return when an out-of-home ongoing safety plan is developed; and (c) Re-evaluate the initial safety plan , if one is in place, to determine if it is appropriate and sufficient as an ongoing safety plan and re-confirm all commitments with all safety service providers identified in the initial safety plan if it is to become an ongoing safety plan .
