Contract Type FiledSeptember 28th, 2023Placement agencies and organizations are responsible for communicating a plan of safety for any and all students who confirm a placement with them. Since most agencies and organizations have existing safety procedures, policies, or practices, they should feel free to refer to that which already exists. However, it is important that Field Instructors and/or On-Site Supervisors (if applicable) and students discuss general plans for safety within the first two weeks of the placement. Safety issues could include things like approaches to working with potentially violent or unpredictable client situations, making home visits to places where the student may be unwelcome or there is doubt about the acceptance of the visit, working with clients who are incarcerated or on furlough for violent assaults, and responses to threatening statements, letters, phone calls, e- mails or other communications directed to the student or other agency personnel.
