Abstract

The quasi-experimental research aimed to study the effects of the supportive program and application
towards care behavior of caregivers of newborns with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia undergoing phototherapy.
The sample consisted of 30 caregivers that were divided equally into two groups (experimental and control
groups). The samples were purposively selected. The samples was trained with the supportive program and
application, including 1) teaching through the application, 2) guiding and following for being aware of care,
3) supporting and ensuring the continuity of care, and 4) demonstrating clear procedures. The control group
received regular nursing care. The data collection tool was the questionnaire on care behaviorof caregivers
of newborns based on Orem’s conceptual framework. Data were analyzed by Independent t-test and Paired
t-test.
The results showed as follows. 1) after the experiment, the mean score of caregivers’ care behavior
in the experimental group was statistically significant higher than those in the control group at 0.05. 2)
after the experiment, the mean score of caregivers’ care behavior in the experimental group was statistically
significant higher than that of before the experiment at 0.05.
The supportive program and applicationcan be used as a guideline for nursing careto properly and
continuously promote care behavior of caregivers of newborns with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia undergoing
phototherapy.
