When a client authorized to receive a placement service arrives to receive the service, the caseworker allocates a place to the client. This information is recorded as a placement. The placement could be for a definite period for which the service has to be delivered or it could be ongoing, without an end date.
If there is any change in the placement period, the caseworker or resource manager can update the placement. If the placement was updated by the resource manager, the caseworker who created the placement is notified.
