Abstract
Objective
Ensuring quality of maternal and newborn healthcare is challenging in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) as the maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity rate is high. Essential for quality care is a person-centred approach. One model of person-centred care (PCC) has been developed at Gothenburg University. To support its implementation a training programme, “Mutual Meetings”, has been developed. This study aims to test the feasibility of a translated and culturally adapted version of this PCC training programme for healthcare providers in the maternal and newborn healthcare context of DRC.
Methods
The PCC programme was translated into French and tested in a workshop with 31 maternal and newborn healthcare providers in eastern DRC. The feasibility of the programme was evaluated through focus group interviews and individual interviews. The interview transcripts were analysed deductively using key components in a process evaluation framework including fidelity, dose, reach, adaptation, acceptability, and application.
Results
The French PCC programme exceeded the participants’ expectations and was found being applicable in both teaching and clinical setting with some suggested contextual modifications. Its pedagogic structure including a participatory reflective approach, was perceived innovative and inspirational, mediated a sense of comfort, and enabled the participants to use a person-centred approach towards each other.
Conclusion
The results show that the French on-site version of the PCC training programme was valid in terms of feasibility and how it was received by the participants. The study demonstrates the importance of contextual adaptation of complex interventions in new settings.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
