Okla. Stat. tit. 10, § 10-21.10

A. Upon any voluntary out-of-home placement of a child by a

parent into foster care with a child-placing agency, the child-

placing agency shall conduct an assessment of the child in its

custody which shall be designed to establish an appropriate plan for

placement of the child. Following the assessment, the child-placing

agency shall establish an individual treatment and service plan for

the child. A copy of each plan shall be provided to the child if

the child is twelve (12) years of age or older and to the child’s

parent or guardian. The plan shall at a minimum:

1. Be specific;

2. Be in writing;

3. Be prepared by the agency in conference with the child’s

parents;

4. State appropriate deadlines;

5. State specific goals for the treatment of the child;

6. Describe the conditions or circumstances causing the child

to be placed in foster care;

7. Describe the services that are necessary to remedy and that

have a reasonable expectation of remedying the conditions or

circumstances causing the child to be placed in foster care;

8. State to whom the services will be delivered and who will

deliver the services; and

9. Prescribe the time the services are expected to begin and

the time within which expected results can reasonably be

accomplished.

B. The child shall receive a complete medical examination

within thirty (30) days of placement in foster care.

C. The child may receive such further diagnosis and evaluation

as is necessary to preserve the physical and mental well-being of

the child.

D. Subsequent to initial placement, the child placed in foster

placement shall have a medical examination, at periodic intervals,

but not less than once each year.

E. Prior to any proposed counseling, testing, or other

treatment services, the court or child-placing agency shall first

determine that the proposed services are necessary and appropriate.

F. If the assessment and medical examination disclose no

physical, mental, or emotional reasons for therapeutic foster care,

a child voluntarily placed with a child-placing agency shall be

placed in a regular foster family home. If therapeutic foster care

is required, the child may be placed only in foster homes that are

certified as therapeutic foster homes pursuant to the Oklahoma Child

Care Facilities Licensing Act.
