The transition from hospital to home can be challenging for parents of prematurely born infants. The aim of this ethnographic study was to describe a multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral discharge conference for families with premature infants transitioning from a neonatal intensive care unit to municipal healthcare services. An ethnographically/anthropologically inspired qualitative design was adopted. We conducted four participant observations of multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral discharge conferences and 12 semistructured interviews with four neonatologists, four nurses, and four health visitors who had attended one of the conferences. Salient themes were generated by two-part analysis consisting of a thematic analysis followed by Turner's ritual analysis. This study illustrated how multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral discharge conferences improved the quality of care for premature infants and their families in their transition process which was perceived as complex. These conferences contributed to promoting a sense of coherence and continuity of care. The healthcare professionals experienced that this event may be characterized as a ritual, which created structures that promoted cross-sectoral cooperation and communication while increasing interdisciplinary knowledge sharing. Thus, the conferences triggered a sense that the participants were building bridges to unite healthcare sectors, ensuring a holistic and coordinated approach to meet the unique needs of the infants and their families. This study presented a unique holistic and family-centered approach to constructing multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral discharge conferences that seemed to underpin the quality of interdisciplinary and health-related knowledge sharing and establish a crucial starting point for early interventions, preventive measures, and health-promoting efforts. Hopefully, our findings will encourage others to rethink the discharge conference as a transitional ritual that may potentially bridge the gap between healthcare sectors. Specifically, our findings contribute to the mounting body of knowledge of family-centered careby showing how healthcare professionals may-in a meaningful and tangible manner-operate, develop, and implement this somewhat elusive theoretical foundation in their clinical practice.
