| Popis: | The past 20 years have seen dramatic growth of hospital lactation programs. There are few regulatory guidelines leaving advocates for lactation services to justify need, safety, and best practice to implement changes. The professional networking group, Children’s Hospital Lactation Network, was surveyed about breast milk facilities and practices. Analysis of survey responses will provide lactation programs with information needed to identify improvements and recognize priorities for lactation practice and safe, effective breast milk management. Lactation programs need specific regulations to guide practice to enable them to receive funding for equipment and staffing and support to make decisions on policies and best practices. Specific recommendations, consistent between regulatory agencies and across the United States, would be beneficial to optimizing lactation support for hospitalized infants and their families. |
