Unfortunately, there will be the occasion when a PARTICIPATING CHILD’S FAMILY MEMBER passes away. When this happens, please make the following changes to the deceased family member’s account:
Move the person’s first name to the middle name space
Enter “DECEASED” (all caps) as their new first name
Add a case note which includes their date of death
If the deceased person is a primary adult, make sure their Adult Status is changed to Other Adult, and another family member is made the primary adult .
By handling it in this way, any generated report will include “Deceased” and we can avoid distressing parent communications.
Please see the example in the image below:
