86.3
 86.3 (1) A licensee who operates a children’s residence shall, as required by this section, conduct a safety assessment in respect of any child who is to be admitted to the residence and in respect of residents in order to determine whether a safety plan is required for the child or resident. O. Reg. 350/22, s. 10. (2) For the purposes of this section, conducting a safety assessment in respect of a child or resident consists of, (a) making reasonable efforts to determine whether the child or resident engages in behaviours that may pose a risk to the safety of themselves or others or whether there are other risks to the child or resident’s safety, on the basis of all information known to the licensee including information about the child or resident’s needs and behaviours contained in, (i) any documents or information collected by the licensee or any documents created by the licensee as part of the pre-admission assessment described in section 86.1, (ii) in the case of a resident, any serious occurrence reports or other reports concerning the resident prepared by the licensee or persons providing direct care to the resident on behalf of the licensee and any plan of care developed for the resident; and (b) obtaining the view of the person who is placing or who placed the child or resident or of the placing agency, as the case may be, on the need for a safety plan for the child or resident. O. Reg. 350/22, s. 10. (3) The licensee shall document any safety assessment conducted under this section and ensure that the documentation is maintained in the child or resident’s case record. O. Reg. 350/22, s. 10. (4) A safety plan is required for a child or resident under this section if, after conducting a safety assessment, the licensee determines that, (a) the child or resident engages in behaviours that may pose a risk to the safety of themselves or others or there are other risks to the safety of the child or resident; or (b) the view of the person who is placing or who placed the child or the placing agency, as the case may be, is that a safety plan is needed. O. Reg. 350/22, s. 10. (5) Unless a safety plan has already been developed for a child or resident in accordance with section 86.4, a safety assessment must be conducted by the licensee, (a) in the case of a child who is to be admitted to the residence, before the child’s admission; (b) in the case of a resident, (i) during the development of the resident’s written plan of care, (ii) during a review of the resident’s written plan of care, and (iii) immediately following any situation during which the resident engages in any behaviours which may pose a risk to the safety of the resident or others or during which the resident’s safety is otherwise put at risk. O. Reg. 350/22, s. 10. (6) If a safety plan is required for a child or resident, the licensee shall ensure that a safety plan is developed in accordance with the requirements of section 86.4 as soon as possible and, in the case of a child who is to be admitted to the residence, before the child’s admission. O. Reg. 350/22, s. 10. (7) Within 30 days after the day on which section 10 of Ontario Regulation 350/22 comes into force, a licensee who operates a children’s residence shall, in respect of every child who, on that day, is a resident of the children’s residence, (a) conduct a safety assessment in respect of the resident; and (b) if a safety plan is required, develop a safety plan as soon as possible in accordance with the requirements of section 86.4. O. Reg. 350/22, s. 10.
