Abstract:
During this presentation, we will discuss how best practices in early referral of skilled lactation support can improve feeding outcomes.

Learning Objectives:

2. Identify equitable referral strategies for timely diagnoses of ankyloglossia.
3. Discuss solutions to effectively refer and collaborate across care teams.
