New rules for how Utah hospitals and birthing centers must treat families experiencing pregnancy or infant loss form the heart of this bill. It requires state licensing agencies to establish official standards for bereavement care at birthing facilities — including things like memory-making opportunities (such as photos or keepsakes), access to grief counseling, procedures for anticipated losses, referrals to support organizations, and time and space with the infant — and ties compliance with those standards to a facility's license. The bill also directs the state to develop an optional bereavement training for health care professionals in emergency care, obstetrics, and labor and delivery, which can count toward their required continuing education credits.
