***I said that my professional code of ethics prevents me from participating
in any event sponsered by a formula company. Does anyone know where exactly
that is written?***
I was just at the IBLCE web site and found the Code of Ethics listing two
points particually pertinent to your dilemma and are written as follows ...
" 5.) Remain free of conflict of interest while fulfilling the objectives
and maintaining the integrity of the lactation consultant profession."
and
" 17.) Disclose any financial or other conflicts of interest in relevant
organizations providing goods or services. Ensure that professional
judgement is not influenced by any commercial considerations."
I found the above information listed at www.ibcle.org/coe.html
Just wanted to wish you the best Esther .. you are in my prayers! Go get
'em!!
Sincerely ... Jodi
