Influencing placing the subject child with the relative provider beyond the providers licensed capacity was the fact that this provider was both a relative placement and all of the child's siblings were placed with this relative.  Additionally, multiple workers were assigned to this case within the placing agency. The multiple workers assigned to cases such as this has resulted in the agency's need to have specialized workers on a case that better support the agency being more child focused.  Having multiple workers on this case contributed to role confusion in providing services to this child and family.  This role confusion impacted communication between the placing worker and the licensing worker at the agency that was responsible for licensing the home.  As a result, communication barriers between the two agencies occurred around the licensing process; including notification of the child being placed in the home.  This further contributed to the placing agency not being aware that the home was only licensed for 3 children, not 4.  Staff within this local agency also do not have offices and as a result, often work remotely and separate from one another.  The location of the multiple staff on the case within the agency also created communication barriers between staff. Further supporting this placement decision was staff's limited knowledge of all of the licensing requirements as child protection workers are not typically responsible for the licensing process with families.
