Location
of Monitoring
- Open Monitored Visitation.
The location can be chosen by the person being monitored with the
consent
of the monitor. Choices would include parks, malls, relatives
home,
playgrounds, restaurants, hotel rooms for out of town visitors,
etc.
(Amusement parks, movies, swimming pools and spas are difficult places
to provide safety for child.)
There may be transportation between locations. The monitor should
always be with the child.
- Single Site Monitored Visitation
- Open area or multiple rooms
- One room with monitor viewing through one-way mirror
- One room with monitor in room
- Most suited to monitoring when there are allegations of
abuse under
investigation
- Most suited to monitoring when abuse has occurred and the
perpetrator and
the victim have not yet had therapeutic contact in which the abuse has
been discussed.
- Most suited when there are concerns about abduction.
MONITORED VISITS SHOULD NOT BE IN PLACES
CHILD ALLEGES ABUSE TO HAVE OCCURRED.
