> I have recently joined an OB clinic and am working with them to develop a Lactation Program. Until now, they had LCs that they referred to but no internal program. I am looking for some ideas for the "must-haves" that I need to request. The budget is very limited until we can get things reimbursement and insurance worked out, but they have been very generous with me and I don't want to push it. Can you guys please recommend your list of essentials that the clinic simply must have on hand? Here is what I have so far: accurate scale(the one they have only measures to 10 grams- I am going to push for a more precise one), breast models and diagrams, educational materials such as DVDs and books, nipple shields, cups, syringes, and feeding tubes for demonstrating alternate feeding methods. Anything I'm missing?
