Descripción: This survey has been conducted to indicate the positive effects of implementing neonates continuous care patterns on their physical health as well as early diagnosis and decrease of complications in 6 weeks after delivery. This quasi-experimental study has been conducted on 118 mothers and their neonates in one maternity hospital in IRAN. Neonates were assigned in control and experimental groups. Discharge planning included mothers face to face interview, training in hospital, the determination of readiness for discharge and follow up by home visit and telephone call. Data were collected by demographic questionnaire and physical status check lists for neonates. Statistical comparison of the two groups shows that physical status of neonates was significantly better in experimental group than control group (P < 0.001). Accordingly, the implication of discharge planning by nurses could be useful in improving the neonatal physical status and decreasing their problems after birth.
