by
To revise a “<a href="http://www.legislature.mi.gov/documents/1999-2000/billanalysis/House/htm/1999-HLA-5543-B.htm">safe delivery of newborns</a>” law passed in 2000, which provides legal protections to a mother who surrenders a newborn to an emergency service provider. This bill would allow fire departments and hospitals to install a “newborn safety device” a mother surrender a baby anonymously, similar in operation to a bank drive-up window or library book return slot, subject to various safety, sanitation and alert requirements.
Referred to the Committee on Families, Seniors, and Veterans
