Baby Changing Tables in Health Centers
Official: Baby Changing in Health Centers Act
The Baby Changing in Health Centers Act requires health centers to provide baby changing tables in restrooms. This helps parents care for their babies while visiting these facilities.
1. This bill requires certain health centers to have baby changing tables in their restrooms. 2. Health centers must ensure these tables are safe, clean, and suitable for use. 3. Exceptions apply if restrooms are not public or if installing a table is too costly. 4. Health centers can use grant money to buy and install these changing tables. 5. The bill sets aside $5 million to help health centers meet these requirements.
Parents and caregivers visiting health centers with young children will benefit from this bill.
