Effectiveness of educational module upon new born care among primi antenatal mothers

The aim of the study is to assess the effectiveness of an educational module upon new born care among primi antenatal mothers. A quantitative approach with quasi experimental design (one group pretest and post-test design) was adopted. Simple random sampling technique (Lottery method) was used to select 300 samples. The Study findings showed that almost all ante natal mothers (97.6%) had inadequate knowledge before educational intervention which was improved as 93% of mothers showed adequate knowledge after the intervention. The study hence concludes that educational interventional programs can enhance mother's knowledge upon newborn care that would influence the newborn's health status.
