Cohort 4 student Veronica Blanco Gutierrez publishes a journal article entitled ‘Culture and breastfeeding support’ in the British Journal of Midwifery.
Veronica had this to say about the paper: ‘This article discusses the importance of taking into consideration different cultural aspects of every women when health professionals, particularly midwives, provide breastfeeding support. It is vital for the provision of breastfeeding care to have social determinants of health, such as culture, at the heart of care. Adequate and tailored breastfeeding support is key in the provision of care. I am very passionate about breastfeeding support and how to improve the breastfeeding experience for women and their babies. I am hoping to undertake research on improving breastfeeding support to improve health outcomes.’
