<< Anyone care to discuss the ethics of direct marketing of breast pumps
to hospitalized new mothers by staff who also have private depots or pump
sales businesses? Is this fair game, the convenient provision of needed
products, or is this a conflict of interest? >>
To add to that, how about a hospital based rental program where moms are
encouraged to rent the pump to either take home, or are taken a pump on the
routine home visit & encouraged to rent it at that point? Is this pushing a
product to make a buck?
