Evaluating the implementation fidelity of basic emergency obstetrics and neonatal care services in Beyeda District, Northwest Ethiopia: a case study evaluation

The overall implementation fidelity of the BEmONC services was judged as implemented in medium fidelity. Moreover, the adherence, participant responsiveness and quality of delivery dimensions were found to be implemented in medium fidelity. Therefore, public health sectors at all levels should strive to enhance the implementation fidelity of BEmONC services. Moreover, healthcare providers should adhere to the BEmONC implementation protocol guideline during service delivery. Healthcare managers should facilitate a continuous awareness creation for mothers regarding the merit of neonatal resuscitation for neonatal complications. Furthermore, healthcare providers should give due respect to mothers while delivering the services.
