This rule is being updated to reflect the legislative changes made in H.B. 101, H.B. 185, and S.B. 85 (2017) regarding the definition of foster care, capacity limits in foster care, statutory requirements of home study evaluations, clarification on who can do adoptive home studies, and the use of incidental care for foster care providers. In addition, this rule adds the requirement of a standardized form for inspecting certified foster homes, and includes a requirement that some be unannounced. Some definitions that no longer applied to rule were removed. Also removed were some signature requirements to simplify paperwork processing and the dates of background screenings and how they align with license dates were clarified.
