Florida Child Welfare Case Manager Certification Practice Exam

Per Florida statute, community-based care providers do not have the authority to?

1. Remove a child

2. Provide educational services

3. Offer counseling

4. Administer vaccinations

The correct answer is: Remove a child

Community-based care providers are organizations that offer services to children and families in need. This can include providing counseling, educational services, and other support. However, per Florida statute, they do not have the authority to remove a child from their home. Option B and C may be tempting as they are also services that could potentially be provided by community-based care providers, but the question is specifically asking for an action that they do not have the authority to do. Option D, administering vaccinations, may seem like a more medical-related task and therefore something that community-based care providers may not have the authority to do, but in reality, this is not specified in the Florida statute. Therefore, option A is the correct answer as it is the only option that is specifically mentioned as not having the authority to do in the given context.
