Summary
This study tested a program called Mother Integrated Care for mothers of premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The program trains mothers to actively participate in their baby's care, moving from being visitors to primary caregivers. Researchers measured stress and mother-baby bonding in 60 mothers, comparing those who received the training to those who did not.
