Résumé
Despite an emphasis on lactation and the availability of resources to support and sustain lactation, our community hospital's rates of exclusive breastfeeding remained less than the 50% to 70% benchmark recommended by The Joint Commission and the World Health Organization. Concluding that we had exhausted the majority of evidence-based best practices described in the literature, we sought to find a new way to provide an engaging, useful medium for nursing education and improvement of clinical nurses' skills related to breastfeeding. Here, we describe the simulation program we developed using the standardized patient model. Although our rates of exclusive breastfeeding remained unchanged after introducing the simulation program, the experience enabled us to identify inconsistent practices and knowledge gaps.
