54 Celebrating success along the way!

55 LOI Baby Friendly!

56 RBQIT helps us to build the fire and passion by giving us tools and resources to bring back to my facility that affect real changes towards Baby Friendly. For example our implementation of the Golden Hour with skin to skin, and clarifying our supplementation protocols. (Eden Medical Center) The Taskforce helped us develop our BF committee and understand who should be involved and how to get their buy in for change. For years it was just ME! Now we hired another IBCLC, we have a policy, and we ve locked up the formula in the PYXIS! (Sutter Delta)

57 Taskforce participation has given us ideas on how to get Administrative buy in which we have struggled with! It motivates our hospital team to keep going! (Contra Costa Regional Medical Center) We are learning about standards of care at other hospitals in the community and bringing the information back to our manager. It s great to learn about how we can do our own education and also hear about educational opportunities in the community. (Valley Care Medical Center)

58 It s sharing and networking to learn what is going on at different facilities and services offered for our patients especially WIC! (Sutter Delta)

59 The systems within which your hospitals work and receive QI support are resources for advancing breastfeeding by bringing administrators and quality engineers on board in partnership with WIC. Consider the hospital/systems core strategic values and community health objectives. Relate these to the medical issues from sub-standard care. Use WIC data to demonstrate need. Promote opportunities to bring hospitals together especially those that have achieved Baby Friendly with those that are striving for it.
