In this course we will investigate some approaches to case management that include the "perfect consultation" or how not to be the lactation consultant that adds to the "train wreck" that may be happening with the case. This course shows the integration of the maternal and infant feeding histories in the development of a plan of care. The presentation works off the precepts laid out by Cadwell and Maffei-Turner in Case Studies in Breastfeeding and complements the continuing education course entitled "Essence of Being a Lactation Consultant". There is a comparison of 2 cases and a discussion of knowing when "enough is enough" and when for the professional to "let go".
These courses are intended for existing International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLC's) looking for Lactation Continuing Education Recognition Points (LCERP's) towards re-certification by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBLCE).
