Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Breastfeeding radiologists face challenges as they re-enter the workforce. Radiology employers can develop and implement a strategic plan to tangibly support breastfeeding radiologists through establishing lactation support infrastructure. This can be accomplished by implementing formal policies and procedures for lactation breaks, establishing lactation rooms that are clean, comfortable, and convenient to access, facilitating access to breast pumps for trainees, and building a comprehensive support system.
