Each child placing agency shall maintain a current confidential case record for each child, including: Family, social, and health history; reason for acceptance for service; services to be provided to the child; the plan for the child's treatment, if applicable; a summary of services and treatment provided to the child; and the plan for discharge and final disposition. Records shall be maintained in a manner which provides for the separation of information on the biological family, prospective adoptive family, and child so as to preserve the integrity and confidentiality of the records. Records should be clearly labeled and cross referenced as to related files for birth, adoptive family and child to provide continuity of information while preserving confidentiality.
