Requirements to become a foster parent
You'll still have support and guidance when you receive a foster placement. Kentucky has continued training and can connect new foster parents with experienced families through the Foster Parent Mentor Program.
Having access to an experienced foster family is invaluable. You'll be able to connect with other adults who have advice and can provide coaching to make your parenting journey easier.
Your local child-placing agency is one of your best sources of information and foster parenting services.
Nonprofit child welfare organizations approved by the state recruit resource parents, provide resources, and offer training and general support. When you attend the informational orientation and parent training, you'll receive books and resources that tell you more about the many available foster parent support groups.

Constant issues with management, no support or direction. No care for staff from top down and very clear favoritism to kids who could be marketed. No action when shown problems and clear overreactions to certain people when similar issues popped up. Bottom line, this place is great on the surface, but very cleary a business and nothing more. Avoid and work for a place that cares for their employees and patients.

It is a safe place for children who are medically fragile. They have nurses on staff 24/7 as well as nursing aids 24/7, a doctor is on call 24/7 also.

The audiology staff are so friendly and sweet, I had such a great experience taking my newborn for a hearing test. They were patient and always made sure I was comfortable.

Great staff! Great place for a child to go to when abused and need to be rescued.
