Breastfeeding rates in the United States continue to be variable and are not meeting benchmarks established by Healthy People 2020. The literature indicates that although breastfeeding knowledge of providers is paramount in the success of breastfeeding mothers, most receive minimal education regarding breastfeeding management. Recognizing a lack of opportunities for nursing students to practice breastfeeding management during clinical rotations, a breastfeeding simulation program was implemented for students prior to beginning Maternal Child Health clinicals. Students reported increased confidence in caring for breastfeeding dyads and enhanced comfort when providing care to a breastfeeding mother (breastfeeding self-efficacy). This hands-on educational approach can be utilized for any provider working with breastfeeding dyads.
美国的母乳喂养率仍然参差不齐，未达到《健康人民2020》设定的基准。文献表明，尽管医护人员的母乳喂养知识对母乳喂养母亲的成功至关重要，但大多数人接受的母乳喂养管理教育极少。认识到护理专业学生在临床轮转期间缺乏实践母乳喂养管理的机会，在开始母婴健康临床实习之前，为学生实施了母乳喂养模拟项目。学生们报告说，他们在照顾母乳喂养母婴方面的信心增强，在为母乳喂养母亲提供护理时也更加自在（母乳喂养自我效能感）。这种实践教育方法可用于任何与母乳喂养母婴打交道的医护人员。
