Abstract
The Integrated Family Delivered Care Project (IFDC) aims to empower parents to become experts in their baby's care, and create an ethos, which truly reflects and responds to the families' unique needs. This quality improvement project was developed based on emerging evidence from research studies, which has demonstrated the effectiveness of Family Integrated Care (FIC) model. Although this programme was designed as a quality improvement (QI) project using QI tools to avoid the inflexibility and certain barriers that academic research and randomised studies are associated with it is imperative that we collect reliable data on the effect of this new care model. As part of the IFDC project, a set of pre-defined outcome measures will be collected for infants enrolled in the IFDC project; these measures will be compared with retrospective matched controls cared in traditional neonatal care settings.
