Staff shall ascertain this information through conversations with the youth during the admittance process, medical and behavioral health screenings; during classification assessments; and by reviewing court records, case files, facility behavioral records, and other relevant documentation from the youth's files.
The facility administrator shall implement appropriate controls on the dissemination of information within the facility relative to responses received pursuant to this assessment in order to ensure that sensitive information is not exploited to the youth's detriment by staff or other youth.
