CHECK Foster Care Center is designed to help with the medical needs of the foster child during a time of transition. Ohio Law requires that any child entering the custody of the child welfare system be seen for an initial and comprehensive evaluation. It is the responsibility of the caregiver to make the initial appointment and follow up visit. The first visit should be within 5 days of placement and the second within 30 days. It is required that the child be seen at the clinic whenever there is a change in placement. The CHECK Clinic doctors and staff will make recommendations and referrals to specialist when necessary.
