SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Child Day-Care Council regulations; parental notification when a child is injured.  Requires the Board of Social Services and the Child Day-Care Council to review all regulations under their purview regarding child day programs to determine whether they adequately provide for the notification of parents, legal guardians, or other persons duly authorized to pick up a child, in the event a child sustains a significant physical injury while under the program's care.  If the regulations are deemed inadequate, then the Board and Council shall adopt regulations that require each program to notify a child's parent, legal guardian, or other person duly authorized to pick up the child from the center whenever any owner, operator, manager, or employee thereof has actual knowledge of a significant physical injury sustained by the child while in attendance. The regulations shall establish notification procedures including the time and manner in which notification shall be made, and the nature and scope of physical injuries that shall require notification.
