For those of you who work in hospitals that use bar code scanning for breast milk, would you be able to send me a copy of your units policy?  We use EPIC for charting, and are in the process of going to a central storing system, and need to create a policy for scanning.  Mostly wondering how to you check in milk that mother brings in?  What are you scanning, the medical record number, or a different code?  We are also going to be utilizing donor milk on our unit (YEAY) and how to scan that for use.  I really appreciate any help I can get with this.  Thanks!
