I don't know what you'd consider an allied health care praticioner but this
Sounds like DONA's scope of practice for birth doulas which can be found
http://www.dona.org/aboutus/standards_birth.php

It's more laid out that we aren't supposed to contradict HCP's in the
training materials and online here
http://www.dona.org/pdfs/Cont_Ed/Continuing_Ed_and_the_Doula.pdf
But we are non clinical and have a short training. That this type of gag
order would affect IBCLC's is just unacceptable.

When blatantly dumb/wrong things are said by HCP's, even though I'm "just a
doula"  it's very frustrating!!!

Fifth, I have not yet found any scope of practice description for any all=

ied health care practitioner
that has the specification that they not contradict a health care praciti=

oner.  Not one.  If anyone
does find a scope of practice from another allied health care practitioner
