CLSC Saint-Hubert

The institution’s policy on breastfeeding is to create conditions conducive to the promotion and protection of breastfeeding, while supporting families regardless of how they choose to feed their newborns.

The CISSS de la Montérégie-Centre is a “Baby Friendly” institution in accordance with the criteria set by the World Health Organization (WHO).

Recognized worldwide, the “Baby Friendly” certification aims to create care settings where breastfeeding is the norm. Its purpose is to ensure that each child has the best possible start in life. Certification is the result of implementing best practices, part of which is complying with the International Code of Marketing of Breast-Milk Substitutes.

For full details about the “Baby Friendly” program and the conditions that accredited institutions must meet, visit the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux’s website.
