"Pumping Milk in a JPM 2024 Bathroom Stall: My Experience"

A reporter attending the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco shares her frustrating experience of trying to find a suitable place to pump breast milk. Despite being promised a lactation room, she found it locked and inaccessible, leading her to pump in a bathroom stall. This incident highlights the broader issue of the healthcare industry's failure to provide adequate accommodations for women in positions of power, as well as the lack of consideration for working mothers at industry conferences. In contrast, other conferences like CES and HIMSS24 offer multiple private lactation rooms, emphasizing the need for JPM to improve its accommodations for breastfeeding mothers in the future.
