ACS workers will always ask parents to sign a HIPPA form. This allows the ACS worker to obtain your child's medical records. We are often asked by parents if they should sign one. We always advise parents not to sign the HIPPA form. The reason ACS workers want to access the medical records is to dig through them and try to blame the parents for a child's medical condition. This is a common tactic in ACS investigations. If an ACS worker asks you to sign the form, politely decline and advise you will be seeking the advice of an attorney.
The bulk of the street level work that ACS does is the home visit. ACS workers take this opportunity to attack the parents in any ay that they can. Initially the ACS worker will demand that the parents not record them. They will actually give you orders in your own home. Do not allow them to do this. If you have been contacted by ACS, contact our hotline at 917-519-8417 Do not speak to an acs worker without an attorney!! brooklynacslawyer.com queensacslawyer.com bronxacslawyer.com statenislandacslawyer.com sueacs.com
