Review Guidelines and Attachments

The Florida Department of Health provides oversight and assistance to the State and Local Child Abuse Death Review Teams.

These guidelines were developed by the Protocol and Guidelines Committee of the State Child Abuse Death Review Committee with assistance from the Department of Health support staff.

Special appreciation to the Michigan, Georgia and Arizona Child Fatality Review Programs for sharing their review protocols and data forms, all of which were reviewed and relevant information adapted for the State of Florida.

Revisions to this guide will be distributed to state and all local teams when changes in legislation require changes in the guide.
Funding for the publication of this guide is provided by the Department of Health.
