Abstract
![CDATA[Children who have been assessed at “risk of significant harm” may be removed from their biological parents and placed in out-of-home care as an interim measure until permanent placement orders are made. To maintain attachment with their birth family a schedule of contact visits is normally mandated during this period. With the aim of determining an optimal protocol for visitation scheduling, this research has identified a great inconsistency in the reporting of birth family contact visits. It further identifies a need for the provision of consistent guidelines for reporting and training of case workers in report writing. These are significant results as the reports are an important consideration in the determination of final court orders for the placement of children.]]
