The Effect of the Close Collaboration With Parents Intervention - Estonian Study

"The Close Collaboration with Parents intervention is an educational program for the neonatal staff to improve their skills to collaborate with parents and provide support to parenting during an infant's hospitalization. First, experienced nurses and doctors from the units will undergo a 14-day to become unit mentors. Then these unit mentors will train other members of staff. The training of the units is based on bedside practices, a reflection of the practices, and the application of the knowledge in everyday work. Theoretical learning, preceding clinical bedside mentoring, will occur through an e-learning module. Staff members will spend about 4 working days in training alongside their routine work. The unit mentors will function as facilitators for the staff, and they have dedicated time for this. The content of the bedside practices is guided by a manual. The training team will provide frequent remote and contact support for the implementation."
