Description The following Masters of Nursing thesis develops a project aimed to explore and address the need for increased support for breastfeeding nurse employees.
Abstract Breastfeeding nurse employees face unique challenges that require improved workplace lactation support from their organization, clinical leaders, and colleagues. Improving workplace lactation support can increase job satisfaction among breastfeeding nurse employees. This MSN project aims to explore and address the need for increased support for breastfeeding nurse employees. This project discussed many benefits to nursing job satisfaction by providing education and resources on workplace lactation to clinical leaders, staff, and breastfeeding nurse employees. The collaboration of interdisciplinary team members in this project ensures the creation of a comprehensive educational presentation and associated resources to provide breastfeeding nurse employees with increased workplace lactation support. Pre-and post-project surveys will be administered to assess the effectiveness of the project and its impact on job satisfaction. During this project's implementation, breastfeeding nurse employees will receive lactation education and resources to provide support in balancing returning to work and breastfeeding. An additional benefit of the project is that clinical leaders and colleagues will be more equipped to support breastfeeding nurse employees by understanding workplace lactation policy and techniques to improve interventions in the workplace. Evidence-based research indicated that workplace lactation support could increase job satisfaction and improve patient outcomes.
