Debbie, would this job not be suitable for IBCLCs? I ask only because I am discouraged that US hospitals have by-and-large adopted the policy that only IBCLCs with RNs can be hired. I'm old enough to have seen this cancer spread, and now it is so entrenched that it seems "normal." It ISN'T healthy for our profession, or for our professional credential, that we have allowed this. IBCLCs worth their salt could step into any hospital and provide great services. Why not hire an IBCLC, and provide a door of opportunity. Maybe your hospital can be the one that starts the process. Is there a shortage of IBCLCs in your area?
