Oregon Administrative Rules › Chapter 416 - OREGON YOUTH AUTHORITY › Division 550 - TREATMENT FOSTER CARE › Section 416-550-0060 - Treatment

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) Initial
			 Treatment Plan. An initial written treatment plan will be completed by the time
			 of the adjudicated youth's admission to the program. The plan will describe
			 specific tasks to be carried out by the treatment team during the first 45 days
			 of placement. It will describe strategies to ease the adjudicated youth's
			 adjustment to the treatment foster parent's home and to directly assess the
			 adjudicated youth's strengths, skills, interests and needs for treatment within
			 the home. The initial plan should assess short-term goals for the first 45 days
			 of placement, identify potential problems likely to be encountered with the
			 adjudicated youth and specify how the treatment team is to respond to
			 them.
(2) Comprehensive Treatment
			 Plan. A written comprehensive treatment plan will be completed for each
			 adjudicated youth admitted within 45 days of admission addressing the long-term
			 goals of treatment including criteria for discharge, projected length of stay
			 in the program, projected post-treatment foster care setting and aftercare
			 services. It will be congruent with the case plan developed by OYA. The plan
			 will identify and build on the adjudicated youth's strengths and assets as well
			 as respond to presenting problems. The comprehensive treatment plan will
			 include proactive short-term treatment goals which are measurable and
			 time-limited along with specific strategies for promoting and regularly
			 evaluating progress.
(3) Quarterly
			 Progress Reports/Updates. Each adjudicated youth's treatment plan will be
			 specific, reviewed via quarterly reports and revised as necessary. Quarterly
			 reports will document progress on specific short-term treatment goals, describe
			 significant revisions in goals and strategies, and specify any new treatment
			 goals and strategies initiated during the period covered. The quarterly
			 progress report will summarize progress and note changes regarding long-term
			 placement and treatment goals. The interagency team members will be invited to
			 participate in the process to review and approve the quarterly
			 report.
(4) Aftercare Plan. All
			 planned discharges from treatment foster care will be reviewed and discussed by
			 the treatment team, including the parole and probation worker and adjudicated
			 youth. An approved aftercare plan will be ready for implementation prior to the
			 adjudicated youth's planned departure from the program. The plan will specify
			 the nature, frequency and duration of aftercare services and designate
			 responsibility for service delivery. The treatment foster care program will
			 provide these aftercare services directly or provide consultation to the
			 person/agency assuming responsibility for working with the adjudicated youth
			 following discharge from the program. An aftercare plan also will be developed
			 in a timely fashion for an adjudicated youth whose discharge is not planned,
			 with follow-up services provided or assisted as described here.
