It was shown that levels of knowledge and practical skills were significantly improved immediately after, a week after, and a month after the completion of the program compared to the ones before the start of the program. Based on the result, it was proven that the program held a certain level of effectiveness for educating certified neonatal intensive care nurses to provide a neonatal end-of-life care.
