From Kathleen Auerbach.

You might want to read what Pardee Hinson reported about how the lactation
clinic (in-patient as well as out-patient) evolved at her hospital.  She is
the director and is a NON-RN, but she is IBCLC certified.  Her article is in
Current Issues in Clinical Lactation and she makes clear that the issue is
qualifications and what each person on her staff (not all are RNs) bring to
the job they are expected to do.  Check it out.  Perhaps it will touch on
both the issue of non-RN LCs and also the issue of certification...
