| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Many Japanese NICUs encounter serious problems with long-term hospitalization. Our previous study revealed that NICU nurses do not have enough knowledge and skills regarding the transition from NICUs to homes. The purpose of this study was to clarify the effect of an education program on this transition for NICU nurses.We recruited nurses who had practical nursing experience for families whose infants were transitioning from NICUs to homes. We conducted an education program that included 8 sessions offered over 2 months and 2 follow-up sessions. Thirty-eight nurses completed this program. Significant changes in family nursing practice were observed. At the time of the last assessment, nurses used more knowledge and skills in the education program than they did at the previous assessment.It was verify that at the application of this education program for NICU nurses was effective.
