Aspectos y consideraciones sobre la lactancia materna y el rol de la enfermería

Abstract

The innumerable benefits of breastfeeding and the positive impact of continued support for mothers with accurate and evidence-based information are known. Health professionals have a fundamental role

and implicit responsibility when they address neona- tal and maternal and child care. Many of them have

insufficient knowledge and need to acquire attitudes and skills to be able to carry out this support. More

and more mothers are breastfeeding and require sus- tained support to achieve successful breastfeeding.

This article will address the issue of nursing leadership

to provide quality care, manage prevention and treat- ment programs, as well as health care within organiza- tions, hospitals, communities, schools or companies.
