研究组 & 干预措施
Intervention Group
This study includes an intervention development phase (Aim 2) during which the intervention content and delivery mechanisms will be finalized. We will implement the multilevel intervention developed in Aim 2. We anticipate this will consist of one instance of intervention at each hospital and we will develop a full intervention manual following Aim 2. Details regarding the intervention will be updated prior to participant enrollment in the trial.
干预措施: Multi-level communication intervention (Behavioral)
Waitlist Control Group
The wait list control is a group that does not receive an intervention during the study period, serving as an untreated comparison during the study, although they later receive the intervention. This intervention will be delivered after the completion of the last data collection instance.
