Florida Child Welfare Case Manager Certification Practice Exam

When is multidisciplinary team staffing recommended?

1. After a shelter review

2. As needed to assist case plan

3. During annual permanency hearings

4. Following a critical incident

The correct answer is: As needed to assist case plan

Multidisciplinary team staffing is recommended as needed to assist the case plan. This means that it should be used when there are specific cases that require collaboration and input from various professionals and disciplines, such as social workers, counselors, and medical professionals. A is incorrect because a shelter review may not necessarily involve collaboration from different disciplines. C is incorrect because annual permanency hearings are usually focused on reviewing progress and making plans for a child's permanency, rather than problem-solving and decision-making. D is incorrect because multidisciplinary team staffing should not just be used after a critical incident, but rather whenever necessary to address complex cases.
