We are currently writing one as we speak. It is being written by an
IBCLC, Drug and Alcohol Nurse and a paediatrician. All are passionate
about supporting these families and their right to breastfeed safely. It
should be great as the working group are really motivated.

Posting for a colleague not on Lactnet.
Query:
Does your hospital have a policy, protocol, guideline or other process
that
guides practice related to women who have a history of or who test
positive
for substance use (marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, etc.) and
desire to
breastfeed? What type of lactation support is provided, if any? Any
information regarding this issue, including your policy, would be
greatly
appreciated?
