The following words or terms, when used in this part shall have the following meaning, unless the context indicates otherwise:
"Assessment" means an examination, more comprehensive than a screening, performed on each newly admitted juvenile soon after arrival to the secure facility. It usually includes a review of the medical screening, behavior observations, an inquiry into mental health history, and an assessment of suicide potential.
"Juvenile" for the purposes of this part means a person adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction and eligible for placement in a secure juvenile facility.
"Secure juvenile facility" is defined in 10A O.S., § 2-1-103 (31).
"Screening" means the administration of a tool to identify persons in need of more in-depth evaluation or treatment. A screening instrument (using standard forms and following standard procedures) is used to identify immediate risks-suicide, health, mental health and substance abuse-upon arrival of a newly admitted juvenile to a facility. At a minimum, a screening includes an interview, questions, or testing of a juvenile and review of available records, in accordance with a screening instrument and relevant policies.
