Abstract

Background: Improving essential newborn care knowledge and quality of the services are a cost-effective approach to increase newborn survival. Objective: This study intended to assess factors associated with knowledge and quality of essential newborn care provision in western Ethiopia among nurses and midwives Methods: Institutional based cross-sectional study design was conducted. Data was collected by interviewer-administered structured questionnaires, entered by Epi-data 3.1version, and analyzed by using SPSS version 26. The strength of association between independent and dependent variables was measured by odd ratios with 95% CI at the p-value of < 0.05. Result and Conclusion: The Mean value of good score of essential newborn care provision was 41.5% with [95% CI (38.3, 48.5)]. Training, educational qualification, availability of newborn care materials, and work experience were significantly associated with knowledge and provision of essential newborn care. Since the quality score of essential newborn care is low compared to other studies in Ethiopia, the interventional area should be focused on newborn care providers' capacity building and increased equipment availability for essential newborn care provision.
