crib safety

bb,
I don't know where to find the regulations. I do know there is no federal regulation for tops (or at least if there is, we have been in violation for 80+ yrs ). I don't know about the other regulations. It seems the rails in the hospital are closer than the CPC regulated ones on my child's crib at home. The rails also seem more snug against the mattress than the home ones. I don't know if this is d/t regulation or difference in manufacturing. The newer cribs we have have no space at the head and foot and have wrap around (oval) railing. This leaves no space between mattress and rails at any point.

You may want to check with Risk Management at some hospitals. They may be able to advise you on where to find regulations.
