LATCH ON IE (Lactation, Assessment, Training, Competencies for Hospitals) Mandated Hospital Registered Nurses (RNs)Training Developed by University of North Carolina Gillings School of Public Health for us to meet the new CA State (SB402) Baby-Friendly Hospital mandates, including training for ALL RNs working in birthing hospitals in CA. LATCH on IE is a three part course offered by the Inland Empire Breastfeeding Coalition. This course provides each cohort all the didactic knowledge (2 days) and skills/competency assessments (1 day) required. DIDACTIC DAYS - The 2 full virtual didactic education days, taught by IBCLCs and RNs, include engagement with open discussion, poll questions and breakout sessions. SKILLS DAYS - competency assessments with our collaborative partner, Inland Empire Health Plan. There are a total of 72 skills/competencies each RN must be assessed on by a Lactation Professional Examiner during the 6 station rotation Skills Days. During Skills Days, nurses are able to communicate, network and share ideas from their own worksites about strategies for implementation of the 10 Steps.
