Once an operation is placed on HM, the CPS HM program does the following:

• Reviews the data analysis for the operation.
• Reviews reports about the operation in CLASS. 
• Verifies census (the number of placements in the operation, active foster home, or both).
• Discusses the needs of the operation and children placed there with caseworkers and follows up on reported concerns.
• Monitors compliance with SSCC contracts, when applicable.
• Tracks compliance with the tasks specified in the HM plan, when appropriate.
• Reports on progress during meetings (FITS, quarterly meetings, and meetings about extensions and compliance).
• Coordinates and monitors the HM visit schedule for the operation.
• Coordinates with other HM divisions about safety checks, as needed. See 4633 Heightened Monitoring Visits by CPS.
• Conducts foster home placement reviews, as needed.
• Conducts HM safety visits in foster homes, general residential operations, and residential treatment centers.
• Monitors placement intakes and discharges (children being placed into the operation and moved out of the operation).
