How do we make that happen? Which are the health care organiztions most likely to be willing to be leaders in implementing such a policy? Anyone on lactnet know of or work for such a place?? It has to start with the people willing to make that kind of change and be the leaders, then it can become trendy! >I work with a deeply committed group at my facility; >it is both an honor and a joy to be part of it. >However, some of the changes we dream of can only come >to fruition with the help of the "upper levels".
