Close Collaboration and Discharge Readiness

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Family Centered Care

In brief

This prospective non-randomized controlled before-after comparison study aims to evaluate the effects of the Close Collaboration with Parents, a family-centered care intervention for NICU staff, on parents of the newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). We focus on (1) family centered care of the NICU rated by parents, (2) parental anxiety symptoms, and (3) their discharge readiness. The intervention is planned to be implemented between December 2023 and December 2024. The investigators will collect data from parents whose newborns are admitted to the NICU before and after the intervention and compare the two groups. In most cases, the parents of the two groups belong to different cohorts.
