Supportive Developmental Care for Newborns
- Clustering of Care
It is crucial to cluster routine care procedures for preterm infants into a
single session to support their growth and development. This allows the infant
to experience prolonged periods of uninterrupted, restful sleep and reduces
energy loss.
For example, performing diaper changes, umbilical cord care, and sample
collection all at the same time after preparing the necessary equipment
beforehand.
