Joint Infant Feeding Policy (P112)
The joint policy aims to ensure that all staff at Derbyshire Community Health Services (DCHS) and Derbyshire County Council (DCC) Children’s Centres understand their roles in supporting expectant and new mothers and families. The policy emphasizes the importance of breastfeeding for both the baby and the mother, highlighting the numerous health benefits. It also addresses the need for care to be mother and family-centered, non-judgemental, and supportive of parents' decisions. The policy outlines the commitment to improving breastfeeding rates by implementing the UNICEF UK Baby Friendly Standards. This includes providing information to parents about the value of breastfeeding, supporting them to breastfeed for as long as they want, and protecting them from unethical marketing practices by formula milk companies. The policy encourages collaboration across professional boundaries to improve infant feeding support for all families. Leaders and clinicians are expected to take responsibility for making the UNICEF UK Baby Friendly Standards a reality and work together to improve mothers' and parents' experiences of care. The policy also includes a note that the term 'woman' or 'mother' should be inclusive of those who do not identify as female.
