In enrollment routines, which practice is included?

• A. Using evidence based practices, gathering information, and orienting families
• B. Implementing random sign-ins
• C. Relying on memory for contact details
• D. Limiting information collected

Answer: (A)

In enrollment routines, using evidence-based practices, gathering information, and orienting families creates a structured, safe onboarding process. Applying evidence-based practices means choosing methods and steps known to support families effectively and reliably. Gathering information ensures you have essential contact details, permissions, and emergency contacts needed for communication and safety. Orienting families helps them understand program policies, available supports, schedules, and expectations, which fosters trust and smooth participation. The other options undermine reliability and safety: random sign-ins lack consistency; relying on memory for contact details is prone to error; and limiting information collected can obstruct important communications and compliance with safety and regulatory needs.
