What is the best way to store expressed milk for mothers hospitalized for several days for medical or surgical care? Does there need to be a designated refrigerator? Should the milk be taken to the breastmilk refrigerator in the nursery? If so, should it be transported in a certain way, or should the exterior of the bottles be washed? (some med/surg departments have patients with respiratory infections)Should it be kept in the nurse's food refrigerator? Or maybe the medication refrigerator? In the US who provides the containers, the hospital or the parents? Thank you all very much.
