Who can I contact at DSHS to do a health inspection for a foster home?
DSHS has informed DFPS that they are no longer able to conduct health inspections in foster homes. If the local authorities cannot conduct a health inspection for a foster home, document your attempts to schedule a health inspection with the local authority and use the DFPS Environmental Health Checklist. You are no longer required to contact DSHS to request a health inspection, since they have indicated that they will not be offering this service any longer.
