I adapted the competencies I've used in the past and use currently from
the AWHONN standards. "Back in the day" I did create some from scratch.
Basically nurses, care partners, nurse's aides, and anyone else who
helps new mothers should be able to help with latch, postioning, feeding
frequency and duration, signs of intake and output, and provide some
anticipatory guidance and what to expect in the next few days. We also
had a competency on when to use a breast pump and which one to choose.
Sore nipples and engorgement, the use of breast shells and lanolin were
also addressed.
Hope this helps.
