Section 432B.350 - Reporting of abuse or neglect; action by agency which provides child welfare services1. Residential institutions may establish internal procedures for reporting the suspected abuse or neglect of a child. However, such procedures do not relieve any person from the requirements of NRS 432B.220.2. An agency which provides child welfare services shall determine if such a report received from a residential institution indicates that the safety of the child is or may be compromised and that an immediate intervention is needed to protect the child. If the assessment indicates that the child may not be safe in this environment, the agency shall take such action as it determines is necessary to protect the child. The action taken by the agency to protect the child may include, without limitation, removing the child pending an investigation or requesting that the institution remove the alleged perpetrator or limit the access of the alleged perpetrator to the child until an investigation is completed.Nev.
