Come together with your colleagues for three full days as you participation in a high-level Master Class directed specifically towards IBCLCs. There’s no more effective environment for learning than the in-person exchange of information with a group of experienced colleagues. Bolstered by a presentation of the supportive theory and research, the days are filled with strategies for intake, assessment, clinical documentation, anatomy and physiology, nutrition, infant reflexes, identifying and understanding when and where to refer babies with structural dysfunction, developing a collaborative team and integrating all of these resources in attaining functional breastfeeding competency. The course stresses a collaborative assessment of neurologic and biomechanical function as it affects breastfeeding, through infant reflexes and a demonstration as to how the IBCLC and manual therapist can utilise reflexes and facilitate their integration through movement.
With successful completion of the three-day Master Class, the experienced IBCLC will be able to define the strategies involved in functional assessment and habilitation of the breastfeeding dyad, educate families accordingly, develop a sustainable and achievable care plan and the capacity to share relevant information with colleagues towards the goal of collaboration and enhanced knowledge in the field of advanced lactation. In addition, the IBCLC will be able to reference a compendium of effective exercises and tools for facilitating oral habilitation, sucking skills and body movement. They will be able to use multiple strategies to confidently educate families on the use and rationale behind the care plan developed for infants with complex feeding difficulties.
