Abstract
The Belgian government has always been very supportive con-cerning the implementation of individualized family-centered developmental care in newborn units. Since 2012 the implemen-tation of NIDCAP has been subsidized by the government. This project evolution demonstrated the benefit of NIDCAP on care practices1 and revealed the need for intermediate NIDCAP-based programs.2,3 This requires facilitation of NIDCAP implementation in Newborn Intensive Care Units (NICUs) on the one hand, and development of programs adapted to the reality of Intermediate Newborn Care Units on the other hand. These findings matched the observations of the Brussels NIDCAP training center.
