Utah Admin. Code R512-203-3 - Significant Risk Assessments
(1) During a CPS
investigation involving allegations of conduct by a minor that are identified
as severe or chronic as those terms are defined in Sections
62A-4a-101 and
62A-4a-1002, the CPS caseworker
shall complete a significant risk assessment to determine whether a minor is a
significant risk to others.
(2) To
conduct this assessment, the CPS caseworker shall use the assessment tool
developed by Child and Family Services to determine risk presented by the
minor. The tool used shall be the most current version of the significant risk
assessment.
(3) The CPS caseworker
shall base the assessment on the facts of the case that are present during the
CPS investigation.
(4) The
assessment process is not for determining whether the allegation under
investigation is supported or unsupported.
(5) The minor's age alone is not a reason for
determining whether the minor presents a significant risk.
(6) The completed significant risk assessment
instrument for each minor assessed shall be made a part of the CPS record and
shall be classified as private pursuant to GRAMA.
