Providing virtual care has become a reality for many lactation professionals. How can we best consult families of tongue-tied babies virtually? How do we get the visual and functional information we need to guide our care when we are ‘hands-off’? This session will discuss strategies for health professionals working remotely including assessment, documentation, care plan formation, teamwork, and the referral process. While different than in-person consultations, virtual connection and excellent care for tongue-tied babies and their families is possible! Learning to adapt our practice style, gather information digitally, and pivot with the times is vital for our role in providing comprehensive lactation support virtually.
Learning Objectives:
1. Describe strategies to gather clinically relevant information when working virtually.
2. Describe techniques to assess oral anatomy and function when working remotely.
3. Discuss documentation, teamwork, and referral strategies for virtual consulting.
