Dear Lactnet,
In a few weeks, I will start my first job in the area of Maternal Child
Health. I am a student nurse in my last semester of school. I will be
in the Maternal Child float pool. (my title is Patient Care
Assistant). In the interview, I was careful to state that I understood
I was being hired as a PCA, not a staff LC, but that I would like very
much to help with BF teaching. Any tips on how to let nurses know that
I would be more than willing to help without making look like I am a
"know it all"? I will be working nights at a HUGE county hospital. As
far as I know, they do not have any LCs on staff at night. One thing I
am taking into very careful considereation is the fact that I would like
a job there after I graduate with my RN, so I certainly don't want to
offend anyone, but of course I want to help BFing mothers all I can.
Megan Schmidt, LLL, SN, IBCLC
