The breastfeeding collaborative was a committee established this year. It includes a multidisciplinary team approach with MD, NPs, staff from the clinic and RNs within the hospital. There are RNs that participate from labor and delivery, postpartum and NICU. They work to improve the communication and education between the clinic and the hospital setting. This team also worked to put on two skills days, one in the spring and one in the fall, to support and empower the RNs with their lactation skills and the RNs with the DHM program. This team also collaborates with quality to review data each month so we can better understand where we are doing well, and where there are opportunities for improvement. This year they have worked to increase our exclusive breastfeeding results from 59% to 69 %!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
