CANS. The Contractor shall administer the age appropriate Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths Assessment (CANS) Comprehensive tool. The Contractor acknowledges that DCS will also conduct periodic CANS for the Child but that assessments by both parties are intentional and may be anticipated to have different results given the timing and context of the assessments. The Contractor also acknowledges that CANS results are used to track outcomes, and that the requirements for CANS may change over the term of the Contract. Initially, the Contractor shall administer the age appropriate CANS within 7 days of admission of a Child to a facility. CANS reassessments are required every six (6) months by the Contractor and at discharge. The Contractor is required to enter the data from the CANS assessment into the Data Assessment Registry Mental Health and Addictions (DARMHA) database. CANS users must be re-certified as required by the Department of Mental Health and Addiction. The Contractor will utilize the CANS results for treatment planning. For the emergency shelter care program category, the Residential Provider can complete the short version of the CANS; it must be completed within seven calendar days of admission. If any items are rated as a 2 or 3 on the short version of the CANS, then the comprehensive CANS must be completed by either the facility or by an outside mental health professional qualified to complete the CANS. The short CANS tools include behavioral health needs, functioning and risks for the child and the caretakers’ needs and strengths. The ratings of individual needs and intensity of service recommendations can be used to support a family’s and referral agency’s decisions about the next steps and possible interventions. As to the CANS at discharge, if a child transitions to a different level of care within the same provider, the CANS completed for discharge can be utilized at intake to the different level of care (e.g., one CANS for transition purposes can be used for discharge and intake when reporting outcomes to DCS.”
