OOOPS. I think I need to clarify. IF increased time with patients is needed. I
just read one of Nikki's wise posts, where she says "Skin to Skin saves nurses
time." So, of course, that needs to be stressed in many hospital environments,
as well.
Being Private Practice, I am not running from room to room to see multiple
clients per hour, and increased "patient time" seems like a good idea to me,
while in many hospital situations, increased patient time is only necessary in
some cases. While, of course, in most cases, letting Mothers MOTHER their
babies, right from birth, is the wisest choice.
Sorry for the confusion.
Mary
