Mother-Infant Lactation Counselor Program
Banner Good Samaritan provides the Mother-Infant Lactation Counselor Program, a team of counselors who provide specialized assistance to mothers who experience difficulty with breastfeeding while in the hospital. These specialists educate new mothers on the proven benefits of breastfeeding, how to begin, and then how to continue the breastfeeding process. New mothers should check with their nurse to schedule a visit from a breast feeding counselor
