Does Awhonn know that your director had sponsorship from Ross. A few years 
back  here in Ontario Canada, the Canadian arm of AWHONN had a conference 
with every single formula rep there. We all raised a big noise, as there was 
to be a debate as well about the "need or not, to becoming baby friendly". 
At that time we were told that the American group had no attachment with the 
companies. Is that no longer the case?

Subject: Against the Code?

Sticky question.  Our hospital is promoting Evidence-Based practice  and the
education of the nurses.  Our director is holding 4 yearly  inservices based
on AWHONN modules on different topics, all of which cost  money.  I attended
one of these today and unknown to me prior to attending,  the money obtained 
for
this is from Ross Lab.  The formula rep was there  and brought goodies to 
the
inservice (I had none).  Am I going against Code  to attend these hospital
sponsored inservices?  Thanks! Claudia  Globerger  RN/IBCLC
