I have this. It is excellent. HOWEVER - it is a long read and unfortunately confrontational MD's and RN's WILL NOT READ IT! I hope part 2 is a concise, 1-page listing of inferiority of infant formula, even one bottle, and promote human milk banking (which should be a real effort). With proper newer references attached, of course.

Subject: Joint Commission Perinatal Core Measure Set
Jane has asked about exclusive breastmilk feeding which I think means you are asking about the Joint Commission's new Perinatal Core Measure Set which includes exclusive breastmilk feeding upon discharge from the hospital. The US Breastfeeding Committee has a 2 part toolkit for just this use. Part 1 is on the USBC website and Part 2 will be coming shortly. Go to http://www.usbreastfeeding.org/LinkClick.aspx?link=blications/Implementing-TJC-Measure-EBMF-2010-USBC.pdf&tabid6&mid78 for a copy of Implementing the Joint Commission Perinatal Core Measure on Exclusive Breast Milk Feeding. See if this is what you are looking for.
