Assessment, planning and preparation of individual children
Moves for children can be highly traumatic. A holistic assessment and plan for each individual child is needed to make sure the child is moving to the most suitable placement and the experience of change is a positive one for the child. Each child should have an individual care and placement plan.

Planning the transfer of resources
De-institutionalisation involves transferring resources from large centralised institutions to a wide range of services: a complex financial process requiring detailed planning.
![Page 20: Rs presentation japscan rev](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062900/58eba2e81a28ab9f568b4797/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Institutions have three types of resources that should be reinvested in community services:
Financial (annual budget and donations)
Human (institution personnel)
Material (buildings, land, vehicles, equipment)

Resources in institutions should be ring-fenced

A range of community based services is needed to replace institutions
Most are cheaper Some are more expensive

Monitoring and evaluation In order to ensure that the process of reform is effective and is achieving what was intended, monitoring and evaluation must be built into the entire deinstitutionalisation process from the start.
This requires checking what is happening at periodic intervals and whether programme objectives have been achieved and are being sustained. This includes the period after the transition is complete.
The most important indicators of success are: changes in the health, development and life chances of children; effective use of finances; sustainability of the services.
