- The OSRI Quality Assurance Guide is recommended for use by reviewers and those conducting all levels of quality assurance (QA) to ensure that OSRI data are accurate, complete, and consistent. The first bullet under “Period Under Review” beginning on page 2 of the QA guide has been updated to ensure consistent understanding of the practice that reviewers should assess during the PUR. Previously, a new section was added, "Instructions for Foster Care Cases Involving a Trial Home Visit (THV)," to provide guidance when rating foster care cases in which the target child or their sibling(s) went home on a trial home visit during the PUR. The English version is available now. An updated Spanish version will be posted soon.
