National Milk Bank

A National Milk Bank is a facility that collects, screens, processes, and dispenses donor human milk to infants in need, particularly premature or ill babies whose mothers may be unable to provide enough milk. It ensures the milk is safe through rigorous testing and pasteurization, following strict health standards. The bank serves as a vital resource to promote infant health by providing quality donor milk, often during critical early stages of life. This system supports infant nutrition and survival, offering a safe alternative when mother’s own milk isn't available.
