biennially and make any appropriate revisions.

following: health and sanitary conditions, fire and life safety,
security, rehabilitation programs, recreation, treatment of persons
confined in state and local correctional facilities, and personnel
training."

"ยง 5905. Healthy birth for incarcerated women. (a) Duties of correctional institution.--Consistent with established policy and practice, it shall be the duty and responsibility of the correctional institution to provide adequate personnel to monitor the pregnant prisoner or detainee during transport to and from the medical facility and during her stay at the medical facility."
