Establishment of a simulation lab and provision of simulation based trainings

In each hospital, the investigators will perform an initial need assessment to identify the existing skills labs' space, equipment and trained human resources. Then, maternal and neonatal health simulation labs will be established in each hospital. One simulation lab will have 5 rooms- one auditorium hall, one debrief room, two simulation rooms, and one high fidelity simulation room. Equipment and manikins required for practicing maternal and neonatal health related skills will be installed in the simulation lab, along with guidance/ checklists for skills practice. After completion of lab set-up, trainings will be provided to trainers/ MNH staff of each hospital on simulation based methodology, especially focusing on Essential Care for Labor and Birth (ECLB), Bleeding after Birth (BAB), and Helping Babies Breathe (HBB) modules. Similarly, the investigators will also provide training for simulation lab operation and maintenance.
