Mary writes..."The diagnoses here are so varied, from post open heart to
the baby who got off to a poor start with breastfeeding and just needs
some IV fluids and instruction. Ideas, suggestions etc.
any of you have would be greatly appreciated."
Instead of one care plan for breastfeeding, it may be better to insert
breastfeeding information into existing care plans for each diagnosis.
This would also reinforce that breastfeeding is not a "special
situation" to treat, but part of the normal recovery process for the
hospitalized child.
