Section 10:47-6.8 - Lead control

(a) A lead control program shall be developed in each facility which shall ensure that all individuals served shall be protected from the harmful effects of lead poisoning.

(b) Because pica is a form of maladaptive behavior, a behavior modification plan shall be considered by the interdisciplinary team as part of the Individual Habilitation Plan (IHP) of each individual who exhibits pica behavior. If a behavior medication plan is not recommended, the team shall document the justification in the IHP. The team shall follow the provisions of N.J.A.C. 10:47-7.4 in developing a behavior modification plan.

(c) Diagnosis of pica and/or history of pica must appear in a visible area in the IHP (preferably on the cover sheet).
