Parents and caregivers education about the dangers of shaking infants and young children requirements modifications and appropriation

This bill modifies Minnesota's existing requirements for educating parents and caregivers about the dangers of shaking infants and young children. It mandates that hospitals show an approved educational video to at least one parent before a newborn is discharged, while also requiring pediatricians and other primary care providers to use approved materials during well-baby visits for children up to age one. The bill establishes a review process where the commissioner of health must evaluate and update both the videos and educational materials every five years to ensure accuracy and completeness. Additionally, the legislation appropriates funding to support these educational initiatives and includes protections for facilities acting in good faith when distributing the materials.
