Physician Education and Training on Breastfeeding Action Plan
The AAP developed a comprehensive action plan that included recommendations for addressing: 1. Gaps in breastfeeding training and education for physicians, with special emphasis on underserved populations. 2. Training to support the safe implementation of evidence-based maternity practices supportive of breastfeeding. Culture Plan Development The constellation participants developed a plan to create a culture of support for breastfeeding within the medical community, emphasizing support for breastfeeding medical practitioners at all levels of training as a part of medical practitioner wellness. Model Policy Implementation Learning Collaboratives The AAP and AAFP facilitated and supported processes to identify medical schools, residency and fellowship programs, clinics, hospitals, and healthcare systems that implemented AAFP’s Breastfeeding and Lactation Policy for Medical Trainees within their institution as appropriate for their setting and resources. |
