Nurses are accountable for providing current evidence-based information to patients in the clinical setting. Postpartum nurses are in the forefront of supporting exclusive breastfeeding rates to comply with professional and national standards.

The outcome indicated the nurses’ current breastfeeding knowledge or an increased their breastfeeding knowledge before and after the educational session.
