 Changes to NICU follow up

Going forward, we will only be making a chart and offering phone calls to NICU families who have a baby ≥32 weeks gestation.  This will ensure a connection to community services is made for families who will soon be in the community.  NICU is now staffed by Lactation Consultants who can support and educate on establishing milk supply as appropriate for their baby.  Other supports are also available in NICU for the families who have younger babies that will have more extended stays in the acute care setting.  
The work standard has been updated and is in the binder.


Pump Cleaning


Please ensure that ALL milk, hair or anything else is cleaned off the pumps when they are returned.  Specifically, the Pearl pumps in the cup holder area have been found to have dried milk from the previous user after being 'cleaned'.  It is important that we offer clean pumps to our families!  If you don't have time to clean it well, please ask for assistance.
