    The aim of this training is to review and practice the clinical skills necessary to support women in establishing and maintaining breastfeeding.

    Successful completion of this course will provide:
    • The ability to recognise optimal positioning and correct attachment and the ability to teach mothers the skills necessary for them to achieve these for themselves
    • the ability to assess breastfeeding and develop a plan of care for women experiencing difficulties
    • An understanding of current issues in breastfeeding
    • An awareness of Baby Friendly Initiative best practice standards

    This course would suit all staff with a responsibilty to encourage and support breastfeeding including health visitors/public health nurses and community support staff who have previously completed Breastfeeding Management - Primary course. An update should be attended every training year (April - May).
