Breastfeeding
Henry County Hospital is committed to Breastfeeding and is working toward
the Baby Friendly Designation. While admitted to the hospital a new mother
can take advantage of having an on-staff lactation specialist to help
make informed choices when it comes to breastfeeding, as well as receive
expert advice on a variety of techniques that will help determine what
works best for mom and baby. The lactation services are available throughout
the duration of breastfeeding to provide optimal outcomes.
Room Service
With the room service approach patients are offered the freedom of ordering
their meal from a restaurant style menu, at any time throughout the day.
There is no limit to the amount of times a patient can order throughout
each day. Patients' family members are welcome to eat in the room
with the patients as socialization and companionship are proven to promote
healing, as well as better nutrition. Dietitians also play a vital role
in the room service approach. Patients receive education from a dietitian
on what foods will help aide them on their path to wellness while in the
hospital and at home.
