-- [ From: Nancy Coulter * EMC.Ver #2.10P ] -- I am the RN, CLC who had Yaffa's Lactation Consultant position before her. I want to say publicly that Yaffa won't have any difficulty with the doctors, nurses and patients in the hospital knowing that she is a "professional". Her attitude, appearance and knowledge base demonstrate that loud and clear. As Yaffa now knows, the nurse in question developed the lactation position and was the supervisor of the first lactation consultant in the position. That was changed when I took the position. The nurse feels as if she owns the program and would still like to be in control. She is a good nurse and will probably be more comfortable down the line, but is having some difficulty envisioning a non-nurse fulfulling the role. Time and patience will serve Yaffa well. I know she will do a good job. Nancy Coulter, RN, CLC Granada Hills, CA
