Nigeria’s PRRINN/MNCH Programme began training trainers in Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) in 2009 from 3 target states (Katsina, Yobe and Zamfara). As of July 2011, 31 master trainers have carried out both on-site and off-site step down KMC training to over 150 health care providers. Health care facilities were provided with KMC kits for own facility-based usage. PRRINN-MNCH has provided KMC training to 22 health facilities in target states as well as commodities (KMC kit comprising a wrap, cup and spoon, nappy) and equipment (weighing scale, ambubag and mask) to enable KMC implementation.
