9worker or
foster care or treatment foster care intake worker
under ch. 48 may refer
10an infant to a physician for testing of the infant's bodily fluids for controlled
11substances if the hospital employe who provides health care, social worker or
foster
12care or treatment foster care intake worker suspects that the infant has controlled
13substances in the infant's bodily fluids because of the mother's
ingestion use of
14controlled substances while she was pregnant with the infant. The physician may
1test the infant to ascertain whether or not the infant has controlled substances in the
2infant's bodily fluids,
if the parent or guardian consents to the testing and if the
3physician determines that there is a serious risk that there are controlled substances
4in the infant's bodily fluids because of the mother's
ingestion use of controlled
5substances while she was pregnant with the infant. If the results of the test indicate
6that the infant does have controlled substances in the infant's bodily fluids, the
7physician shall make a report under s. 46.238.
