This prospective single centre longitudinal cohort study enrols preterm infants ≤32+0 weeks of gestation and/or birthweight ≤1500g and their parents. Following a baseline period additional Family Centred Care elements are introduced as potentially better practices, these elements focus on four areas: the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) environment, staff training, parental education and psychosocial support to the families. The effect of the implementation of additional Family Centred Care elements on infant, parent and staff outcomes are assessed. The parallel data collection enables to study the interrelation between these three important areas of research.
