‘Believe’ in Breastfeeding: Empowering Parents and Providers the ‘Ted Lasso Way’ – Trish Wierenga, APRN, FNP, IBCLC, PMH-C

Healthcare professionals have a unique ability to promote wellness throughout the lifespan. Unfortunately, knowing strategies to assist families with breastfeeding is not typically part of the medical curriculum.  In this 2-day conference, Trish Wierenga, APRN, FNP, IBCLC, PMH-C will discuss breastfeeding support strategies and tools, easy feeding evaluation techniques for primary care providers and nurses, hot topics in lactation, ankyloglossia and supporting research, team-based care, and case studies, and the impact of feeding challenges on perinatal mental health.  Infused with the wisdom and humor of Ted Lasso, this conference fosters a culture of encouragement and teamwork, empowering providers to approach lactation challenges with confidence and compassion.
