An organization must have and follow an intake policy that sets the criteria for admitting children for care or services and keeps with the organization's purpose and services provided. Except for an emergency placement, the intake policy must include a requirement that sufficient information on each child admitted for care or services is obtained to determine that the child can be appropriately served by the organization. An emergency placement policy requires that the information needed to determine the appropriateness of continuing the placement or services is obtained within seven (7) days admission of placement.
