FROM: Kimberly Hall, Director
SUBJECT: Five Year Rule Review and Amendments to Ohio Administrative Code Rules 5101:2-42-89, and the addition of new rule 5101:2-33-14

This letter transmits Ohio Administrative Code rules governing Substitute Care policy that have been amended and created as new as a result of the Five-Year Rule Review. The following is a brief explanation of the changes.

The new rule 5101:2-33-14 entitled "PCSA requirements for recording a child fatality or near fatality" sets forth the requirements of recording a report of a fatality or near fatality of a child in the custody or the care of the PCSA due to child abuse and/or neglect.

The amended rule 5101:2-42-89 entitled "Private child placing agency procedures when a child in agency custody dies" sets forth the requirements of PCPAs to have written policies and procedures when there is a child fatality or near fatality. The rule has been amended to adhere to the five-year rule review and the requirements for PCSAs have been removed from this rule as a new rule has been created to address PCSA requirements for recording a child fatality or near fatality.
