While there have been numerous reforms made to the child welfare system in Tennessee in regards to providing care for the children, one area that desperately needs to be defined is the provision of care while these vulnerable children are in the custody of the Department of Children’s Services. Currently there is no policy that addresses the responsibility for making sure that these children are provided healthy and timely meals while being held in the local office or while during transport from the office to court, facilities or placements. The caseworkers who have the responsibility for these children are taxed with providing these meals out of their own pocket and then seeking reimbursement which could lead to ethical issues. The children…

This process was a way of getting a nurse to examine and check a child upon their visit. This Programme was paced help and report physical abuse and neglecting among children in the foster care system (MacMillan el al., 2009).

Foster care started in the 1500’s because of the overwhelming number of children without parents and, therefore, homes. The biggest reason there were so many children without guardians was because this was a time when many people had to resort to indentured servitude to survive. There were also many more people dying from now-preventable or now-curable diseases, and when parents died, their kids would join the other orphans in the streets. The number of children on the streets was a problem for many reasons, including moral obligations, excessive thieving problems and the vandalization of homes and businesses. The government had to come up with a way to get these kids off the streets, and their solution was foster care.…
