Your medical library at Martin should be able to get a copy of this CDC
report to your head nurse. She needs to have this in hand and review it
before she gives anyone grief. Your head nurse should progress along the
chain of command with report in hand if you have no luck with her. How can
this LTC discount something written by the CDC? If it didn't have to do
with breastfeeding, she probably wouldn't balk at it.
Whew..my blood's boiling tonight!
