4.1.3


Child File Check-In Process

The Family Worker or Home Visitor will

  • Gather and bundle all required child files in accordance with SOP 4.1.2 – Closing Child Files, Child File Packaging Requirements
  • Place each program year’s bundled files into the manila envelopes provided by the Family Services Department.
  • Clearly and correctly label each envelope, ensuring the program year information matches the requirements outlined in SOP 4.1.2 – Closing Child Files.

  • Verify Enrollment History
    Using the Enrollment History section in ChildPlus, the FW/HV will verify that files for every program year are accounted for.
  • If files are missing, contact the Family Worker/Home Visitor responsible for prior years or the Data Systems Coordinator.

 

Example: A child enrolled for three program years should have three separate program-year file sets.

Using this example, this participant should have 3 sets of files to be bundled together.

  • Rubber-band each program year’s file set separately. Once all program years are individually bundled, use an additional rubber band to bundle all years together.
  • Schedule an appointment with the Data Systems Coordinator to drop off the files. The Family Worker/Home Visitor is expected to remain present while the Data Systems Coordinator reviews the files for completeness, accuracy, and proper bundling.

 

 

File Check-Out Note

If a Family Worker needs to check out a file from the Admin Center, they must contact the Data Systems Coordinator to schedule an appointment for file transfer.
