Burbank, CA (PRWEB) August 06, 2014 -- Stemming from the desire to increase the amount of breast milk available to infants in their Neonatal Intensive Care (NICU) and Postpartum Units, Kaweah Delta Medical Center has awarded an exclusive breast pump provider contract to Limerick, Inc., maker of the PJ’s Comfort® hospital-grade breast pump. Limerick PJ’s Comfort® breast pump is the first and only research-proven hospital-grade breast pump to use technology incorporating both compression and vacuum motion, the same motion that infants use while suckling. The Limerick PJ’s Comfort® has also been proven to establish milk supply in mothers of premature and very low-birthweight infants.*

National Breastfeeding Awareness Month is underway, and experts agree that breastfeeding is a crucial first step in protecting the health of mothers and infants. Kaweah Delta Medical Center recognizes that hospital practices can have an enormous impact on the success of breastfeeding.

“Kaweah Delta Health Care District is determined to help mothers have the most successful breastfeeding experience possible,” says Tracey Neff, RN, BSN, PHN, Outpatient Specialty Clinic and Diabetes Center Manager, Kaweah Delta Medical Center. “We chose the Limerick PJ’s Comfort® breast pump because it not only provides the most natural technology to help moms with their breastfeeding goals, but it’s also very comfortable for them, improving their chances of receiving breast milk for the first 6 months to 1 year of their babies’ lives.” Debbie Seeger, Health Educator and Certified Lactation Counselor at Kaweah Delta Medical Center, adds “We’ve also made PJ’s breast pumps and accessories available for purchase or rental at the Nursery Nook, our in-hospital support center for family assistance with newborn care. The rental option has been a popular and valuable resource for many of our mothers.”

“We are so pleased that our breast pump is helping more moms in Tulare County succeed with breastfeeding,“ said Patricia Kelly, BS Nutrition, Registered Dietitian, CLC, Co-Founder and President/CEO of Limerick, Inc. “Not only is it vital to the health of newborn babies, it is a wonderful bonding experience for mothers and babies.” Joan Ortiz, RN, BSN, IBCLC, Co-Founder of Limerick, Inc. and President of the Limerick Workplace Lactation Program™ added, “The patented technology in the PJ’s Comfort® pump was created based on the feedback of thousands of mothers in our Workplace Lactation Program. It will help any mom who is interested in nourishing their baby with the best nutrition possible.”
