I am looking for some information from hospital-based LCs. The hospital where I work is planning to add a Lactation Service (we currently have none). I am curious to find some information about the number of FTEs for LCs. Please send me information related to how FTEs are determined in your particular facilities. I have talked with some LCs that indicate that FTEs were based on 1.0 FTE per 1000 births/year. If you have no other information I would appreciate general numbers of FTEs of LCs and the number of births/year at your hospitals regardless of how FTEs are determined. This general knowlegde will help me write a proposal for this service that is needed in this area. Thank you!
