Every newborn infant needs certain essential elements of care immediately at birth and during the first vulnerable month of life. This resource describes those fundamental measures, based on evidence, necessary for all babies, whether well or sick, normal birth weight or low birth weight. This set of information sheets offers selected essential recommended practices in newborn care-a tool that can be used by all those who deal with newborns. It has been designed for health care workers in facilities, for those who work in communities, and for those who manage and organize programs that involve care for neonates. The information sheets are versatile, and can be used as a summary of procedures and interventions, a means to review evidence-based aspects of newborn care, or even as a guide to use in talking to new mother about appropriate care for their babies.
