Barriers and facilitators to kangaroo mother care implementation in Cote d’Ivoire: a qualitative study

Abstract

Our study highlighted the challenges to implement KMC in Cote d'Ivoire with unique and specific barriers to implementation. We recommend to researchers and decision makers to respectively design strategies and adopt intervention that specifically address these barriers and facilitators to a better uptake of KMC. Decision makers should also take into account the proposed solutions for a better implementation and scaling up of KMC.
