abstract
This study evaluates the implementation of Safe Delivery+ Programme in refugee camps in Jordan, which integrates the Safe Delivery App, to strengthen the capacity of healthcare professionals. 41 midwives and sexual and reproductive health professionals were trained in key clinical areas including Active Management of the Third Stage of Labour, Neonatal Resuscitation, and Postpartum Haemorrhage, using adult learning principles. A mixed-methods evaluation assessed changes in knowledge and the acceptability, relevance of the training. Among 31 participants who completed both baseline and endline assessments, there was a 15 percent increase in clinical knowledge. Participants reported that the Safe Delivery App supported training was useful for quick reference and improved their ability to provide quality care. Scaling up the Safe Delivery App offers a promising opportunity to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes across Jordan and similar fragile settings.
