The purpose of the Maryland Safe Haven Program is to provide the mother of a newborn the opportunity to provide a safe abandonment of her newborn by: Providing immunity from civil liability and criminal prosecution for a mother who leaves an unharmed newborn with a responsible adult person under certain circumstances; Requiring the approval of the responsible adult with whom the newborn is left; Requiring a responsible adult who accepts the newborn to take certain action as soon as reasonably possible; and Providing immunity from civil liability and criminal prosecution for certain persons, hospitals, and other facilities under certain circumstances. The goals of the Maryland Safe Haven Program are to: Provide for safe abandonment of a newborn with a responsible adult under circumstances where the mother of the newborn does not express a plan to return for the newborn; Offer the mother of a newborn an opportunity to leave her unharmed newborn, whose age may be determined with a reasonable degree of medical certainty, with a responsible adult; Provide appropriate medical care for a newborn abandoned to a responsible adult; and Provide for a long-term plan of care of the abandoned newborn.
