Discuss freestanding emergency medical care facility


Problem: Dr. Richard Miller owns and operates the Health-R-Us Care Center, a freestanding emergency medical care facility in the city of San Antonio. Miller possesses the requisite license for his emergency care facility pursuant to Texas law. The care center provides walk-in urgent care to individuals from the community in need of general illness and injury treatment. It is located on I-10 and is structurally separate and distinct from any hospital in the surrounding vicinity. One day, Dr. Miller arrives at his facility early in the morning to find a baby has been left on the doorstep. A note attached says, "Thanks for everything, Doc. Please take our son, Maxwell. We're never coming back!" Dr. Miller is very distressed. He would like to take the infant in and care for him at the facility, but is not sure of his legal rights in the situation. He thinks he remembers hearing on the radio about certain Texas laws that allow for emergency infant care providers to take possession of certain abandoned children.
