Trocaire<\/a> has officially been designated a \u201cBreastfeeding Friendly Worksite\u201d by the Erie County Department of Health (ECDOH)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The college was recently recognized along with the 17 other designees, all leading Erie County employers, at a Healthy Baby Festival at Delaware Park, which provided resources and educational information to Western New York families.<\/p>\n

To achieve this designation, each organization shared their policies and procedures for review, a site visit was made to inspect physical locations and setup of lactation rooms and additional technical assistance was made available.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2019A Breastfeeding Friendly Worksite\u2019 not only benefits the mother and the baby but benefits employers as well,\u201d the ECDOH said in a release. \u201cStudies have shown breastfeeding can result in lower absenteeism, higher morale and productivity, reduced employee turnover and lower healthcare costs.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the release, Erie County Commissioner of Health Dr. Gale Burstein said that breastfeeding reduces the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and provides infants a protective effect against \u201cillnesses, ear infections, gastrointestinal diseases, and allergies including asthma, eczema and atopic dermatitis.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

However, nursing women returning to the workforce can encounter numerous barriers to breastfeeding, such as a lack of flexibility in their schedule, lack of appropriate accommodations to pump or store breast milk and concerns about support and understanding from employer and colleagues.<\/p>\n

Trocaire\u2019s Mother\u2019s Room is located in Room 336 at the main Choate campus. It is equipped with a refrigerator and sink, comfortable\u00a0seating, and privacy via a locking door and a \u201croom in use\u201d door hanger. The college\u2019s additional locations on Transit Road (Room 102) and Seneca Street (Room 108) are equipped with similar rooms.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be honored by Erie County for our efforts in such a crucial area: support for working moms,\u201d said Marge Andrzejewski, supervisor of Auxiliary Services. \u201cWe wanted our nursing mothers\u2014be they faculty, staff, students or visitors\u2014to have a comfortable, secure location at their disposal, and that\u2019s exactly what we\u2019ve tried to create with our Mother\u2019s Room.\u201d<\/p>\n
