Rule 418.
(1) An
agency shall develop service plans with the child, the child's parents or legal
guardian, the referring agency, and other parties involved in providing needed
services, or medical care, unless the agency documents why any of the entities
have not been involved.
(2) An
agency shall complete written service plans for each child and parent or
parents, as follows:
(a) Within 30 calendar
days from removal from the home.
(b) Within 120 calendar days after the
initial removal and at least once every 90 calendar days thereafter.
(3) When case responsibility
changes from 1 child placing agency to another child placing agency, a modified
service plan must be completed within 30 calendar days of the change in agency
responsibility if no other plan is done within 30 days. The plan must address
why the agency responsibility changed and whether there are any modifications
to existing service plans.
(4) An
agency shall place service plans in the case record.

carrying out the plan. An agency shall give a copy to and review the
parent-agency treatment plan with the parent or parents and foster parents. The
agency must inform the parent or parents and foster parent that the information
in the parent-agency treatment plan and any other information about the child
