Description

    Pursuant to Exhibit 1, part A.2 of the Flores Settlement Agreement 
(Jenny Lisette Flores, et al., v. Janet Reno, Attorney General of the 
United States, et al., Case No. CV 85-4544-RJK (C.D. Cal. 1996), 
licensed programs, on behalf of the Administration for Children and

appropriate routine medical and dental care, family planning services, 
and emergency health care services, including a complete medical 
examination (including screening for infectious disease) within 48 
hours of admission, excluding weekends and holidays, unless the minor 
was recently examined at another facility; appropriate immunizations in 
accordance with the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS), Center for 
Disease Control; administration of prescribed medication and special 
diets; appropriate mental health interventions when necessary for each 
minor in its care.
    The forms are to be used as worksheets for clinicians, medical 
staff, and the health department to compile information that would 
otherwise have been collected during the initial medical or dental 
exam. Once completed, the forms will be given to shelter staff for data 
entry into ORR's electronic data repository known as `The Portal.' Data 
will be used to record UC health on admission and for case management 
of any identified illnesses/conditions.
    Respondents: Clinicians, Health Department staff, Office of Refugee 
Resettlement Grantee staff.
