To support hospitals, the ‘TEN STEPS TO BECOMING A BABY FRIENDLY HOSPITAL’ was introduced. The aim is to provide the best information and support for breastfeeding. This will increase breastfeeding skills in the mother and make breastfeeding a more positive experience, prevent breastfeeding difficulties, and promote long-term health for women and babies.
