The Q is asked: how does a large U.S. Veterans' Administration Hosp. go
about setting up lactation rooms in its facility?

Start at the U. S. Breastfeeding Committee website, with links to many
documents and resources for workplace support of lactation:
http://www.usbreastfeeding.org/Employment/WorkplaceSupport/tabid/105/Default.aspx.
 Consider contacting USBC member-organization AMSUS, the Association of
Military
Surgeons of the United States ("the premier association of military and
federal healthcare professionals") to see if they have any insight on how a
VA Hospital can meet this need.
