A release of information form designated by the department shall be signed by the at-risk older individual or the individual's legal representative prior to the provision of services. In Priority 1 cases, if obtaining the at-risk older individual's signature will delay the process of immediate intervention or the protection of the at-risk older individual's safety, telephone approval is acceptable and shall be documented in the assessment. In this circumstance, appropriate signatures shall be obtained as soon as the life-threatening situation is resolved and a face-to-face assessment is conducted. A release shall also be signed by a client or the client's legal representative if photographs, electronic images, or recordings are taken involving the client or the client's home.
