Preterm babies are vulnerable group of infants because they are neurologically immature and physiologically unstable. Many times, the family is ignorant of the needs of these small babies. There is a lack of knowledge on preterm care among primary health care providers, and lack of parent understanding of need for follow up. Structured follow-up programme can result in improvement of implementation of preterm care and compliance. The present study is carries out the effectiveness of parental preparation strategies (PPS) strategies on selected parameters through provision of care for preterm babies. A simple randomization technique was adopted for 15 parents in experimental and 15 parents in control group with PPS for experimental group and hospital protocol was followed for control group. Then the total score for each subject was calculated and converted into percentage. The result of the study revealed that, no one has adequate knowledge in pretest whereas in posttest 12 (80%) had adequate knowledge in experimental group. In control group no statistically significant difference between pre interventional and post interventional knowledge of parents in provision of care for preterm babies. Conclusion: PPS is found to be more effective in parental preparation in provision of care for preterm babies.
