Section 301.50 Emergency
Placement
Emergency placement services
shall be provided immediately when the provision of other services are not in
the child's best interests and will not ensure the safety of the child because
the Department has reason to believe:
a) that leaving the child in the home of his or her caregiver
would present an imminent danger to the child's life or health; or
b) that a child has been left unsupervised for an unreasonable
period of time without regard for the mental or physical health, safety, or
welfare of the child and the child's parent or caregiver cannot be readily
located; or
c) that services directed toward keeping the family together
would not sufficiently protect the child from harm, thus endangering the
child's safety and well-being; or
d) that the child appears to be severely ill or injured and the
parent or caregiver is unable to care for the child in this situation; or
e) the child is abandoned; or
f) the child is a runaway in accordance with 89 Ill. Adm. Code
329, Return of Runaway Children.
