Model Hospital Policy Recommendations Toolkit
MO-07-0042 BFP
Based on the Model Hospital Policy Recommendations, the Toolkit provides additional references as well as resources and web links to assist hospitals in addressing the policies.
These evidence-based recommendations were developed to provide information and resources to hospitals to improve their breastfeeding rates.
This tool can be used to assist hospital staff and quality assurance team in assessing their own hospital to identify which policy/policies they want to currently address.
BBC is an approach created by the state Maternal Child and Adolescent Health (MCAH) Program to offer technical assistance and collaborate with hospitals to improve their exclusive breastfeeding rates by establishing hospital policies and a continuous quality improvement plan.
Individual Model Hospital Policy Recommendations & Toolkit Links
PURPOSE: These policy recommendations are designed to give basic information and guidance to prenatal professionals who wish to revise policies that affect the breastfeeding mother. Rationale and references are included as education for those unfamiliar with current breastfeeding recommendations. When no reference is available, the interventions recommended are considered to be best practice as determined by consensus of the Inland Empire Breastfeeding Coalition.
