Co-design and implementation of nursing handover improvement tool in Kenyan newborn units: a pilot study
Standardised handover tools can improve information exchange during handovers in low-resource settings; however, due to contextual challenges, there is potential to integrate these tools more as a communication guide. We recommend adopting a co-design approach with healthcare workers to ensure such initiatives meet their needs and to encourage adoption.
