In answering question 7 in the Discharge Summary, if a child was only in one home while in placement what number do we use, one or zero?
The answer would be zero. The question asks how many moves the child had while in placement at your agency. The child was only in one foster home so there were no moves after entering placement at your agency. However, if the child had two foster homes while placed with your agency, he/she would have one move when he/she moved from FH1 to FH2. This question (number 7) has more nuances. The ways in which the federal government defines a move in the CFSR will be studied and our definition updated to reflect the intent of the CFSR. It is intended that this definition update will be completed by January 1, 2008.
