Job Description
At Merrimack Health , we are committed to pay transparency and equity. The base salary range is $36.27 (Min) - $54.41 hourly (Max), excluding fringe benefits and potential bonuses. Your final base salary will be determined based on your education, experience, licensure, and internal equity considerations. Offers are typically made below the top of the range to support future salary growth. As the Lactation Consultant at Lawrence General Hospital, you will be responsible for educating women, families, health professionals, and the community about breastfeeding and human lactation; facilitating the development of policies which protect, promote, and support breastfeeding; acting as an advocate for breastfeeding as the child-feeding norm; and providing holistic, evidence-based breastfeeding support and care from preconception to weaning for women and their families. Encourage informed decision-making about infant and child feeding; display sensitivity to the learner's culture; provide positive feedback and emotional support for continued breastfeeding, especially in difficult or complicated circumstances; and share current evidence-based information and clinical skills in collaboration with other health care professionals. The Lactation Consultant will provide services on any unit in the hospital that is necessary - primarily maternity, labor and delivery, special care nursery and pediatrics.
