These are handed out like candy here, too, with no instructions for 
weaning off, or even putting them on correctly.  The last time I took 
treats and LLL materials up to the L&D floor, I put a pad of nipple 
shield tear-offs with them, which were *very* well received and the head 
nurse told me they put all the tear-offs I brought in to their bf 
giveaway bags.  So you might try that strategy.  They aren't terribly 
expensive, and they have national contact info on them if they want to 
buy more.  Oh, and one time they called me from the floor to ask if I 
had any shields, bc they ran out, so I talked them through RPS :)  Never 
heard back about that specifically, but I haven't had a call about 
weaning off shields in ages.
