The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2023 Supplement, section 245A.50, to modify the first aid and CPR training requirements for family child care providers. Specifically, it stipulates that license holders, second adult caregivers, and substitutes must complete pediatric first aid training before initial licensure and before caring for a child, with the training being provided by an approved instructor. The bill allows for first aid training to be less than eight hours and requires that this training be repeated every two years within 90 days of the initial training date. Additionally, it clarifies that video training approved by the county licensing agency meets the training requirement.

For CPR training, the bill mandates that license holders, second adult caregivers, and substitutes must also complete pediatric CPR training, including techniques for infants and children, before initial licensure and before caring for a child. This training must be conducted by an approved instructor and repeated at least once every two years within 90 days of the initial training date. The bill removes the requirement that training must not expire and emphasizes that the training must be documented. Furthermore, it specifies that CPR training must be developed by recognized organizations such as the American Heart Association or the American Red Cross, ensuring that it incorporates psychomotor skills for effective instruction.
