Florida Child Welfare Case Manager Certification Practice Exam

The case plan is prepared 60 days from the date of child removal. This is because the first 60 days are typically focused on addressing the immediate needs of the child and family, and determining whether or not the child should be returned to the home. Within the first 30 days of disposition, the court will decide on the permanent plan for the child, but the case plan is not prepared until 60 days after removal. Option A is incorrect because it happens too early in the process. Option C is incorrect because it happens too late. Option D is incorrect because it is referring to the arraignment, which is a legal proceeding and not related to the case plan preparation.
