For #WorldBreastfeedingMonth, Mass General proudly highlights the dedicated workers who support our patients and their families on their feeding journey every day. Here’s a sneak peek into the essential work our employees do. 1. Manuela Rosa cleans a multi-user breast pump. At our facility, we support parents in achieving their feeding goals. Using an effective breast pump can help stimulate milk production when the infant isn’t feeding directly at the breast. 2. Jen Gauvin RN, CLC, sets up her breast pump for a session. Jen appreciates her colleagues who understand the importance of continuing to provide breast milk for her infant after returning to work. The PUMP Act safeguards the rights of lactating workers to have time and space to pump during the workday. http://spklr.io/6042tJ0q. 3. Mimi Pomerleau, RN, and Maria Nunez, WIC Community Coordinator, staff an awareness table during World Breastfeeding Week. We're committed to raising awareness and supporting breastfeeding families through education and community outreach. 4. A new orientee receives hands-on training in positioning a baby for a deep latch. Our Baby-Friendly hospital ensures that all OB health care workers are trained to support the initiation and maintenance of breastfeeding. 5. Employee Pumping Room. A quiet and comfortable space where employees can pump breast milk during their workday, reflecting our commitment to supporting lactating workers. 6. Esther Auguste, RN, prepares pasteurized donor human milk (PDHM). We partner with the Mothers' Milk Bank Northeast to provide lifesaving human milk when it’s not available from the infant’s parent.
