Summary

The goal of this mixed methods study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a parent-led family integrated care program in a Level II neonatal unit.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is it feasible to implement a parent-led Family Integrated Care (FIC) program in a Level II neonatal unit?
* How acceptable is the FIC program to parents and nurses?
* Can the FIC program help improve parental self-efficacy and infant outcomes?

Conditions

  • Family Centered Care
  • Neonatal

Interventions

OTHER

Family Education and Parental Involvement

Parents will be oriented to the programme, tools provided for their own learning (pamphlets, information handouts, audio-visual resources), and a checklist of infant care topics to be completed. The primary caregiver will be asked to commit to spending one to two hours per day to attend education sessions on the topic(s) of their choice. Parents will be encouraged to provide progressively more daily care for their infants as they complete more education sessions. After each education session, parents will check off for each completed topic on their skills checklist.
