Foster parents sometimes forget that their home is now a state-licensed or certified residential care facility subject to safety inspections that could come at any time. This course helps them prepare for inspections.

Michael Quinn, a 25-year-veteran social agency professional, guides parents through a virtual 10-station tour and inspection of a typical foster home. He looks for dangerous conditions that might go unnoticed until seen as a safety hazard to children -- everything from the temperature of hot tap water to unsecured old freezers. Parents assume the role of regulator with self-scout house inspections, noting deficiencies and making necessary corrections or repairs.

This course offers home safety tips and compliance tools including:

• Self-inspection checklists
• Unusual problems
• Main inspection stations
• Yard and pool safety
• Charts for self-scouted inspections

35 minutes.

Includes: Interactive DVD, discussion guide and reproducible questionnaire on a CD.
