If a child has been previously placed in out-of-home care and is subsequently returned to out-of-home care, and the department cannot locate an appropriate and available relative or other suitable person, the preferred placement for the child is in a foster family home where the child previously was placed, if the following conditions are met:
(1)The foster family home is available and willing to care for the child;
(2)The foster family is appropriate and able to meet the child's needs; and
(3)The placement is in the best interest of the child.
