Assessment and Treatment of the Breastfed Infant

Description

Offering breastmilk provides numerous benefits for both the mother and the infant. When working with a family who is choosing to provide breastmilk, it is important for the feeding therapist to balance safety, efficiency and familial goals. This talk will focus on the assessment and treatment of the breastfed or partially breastfed infant as well as providing guidelines as when to work with other medical professionals, in particular IBCLCs.
