Abstract: Background of the study: High quality universal new born health care is the right of every new born everywhere. Babies have the right to be protected from injury and infection, to breathe normally, to be warm and to be fed. All new born should have access to essential new born care, which is the critical care for all babies in the first days after birth. Despite global efforts to reduce infant mortality, an estimated 2.4 million new born die every year within the first month of life, with over 80% of this death occurring in low- and middle – income countries. Many of these deaths are preventable through evidence- based intervention such as essential new born care. Despite the availability of evidence – based intervention, the uptake of essential new born care practices remains in low in many low – and middle- income countries. This is due to a lack of knowledge and awareness among mothers and health care providers, inadequate infrastructure and resources, and cultural and traditional beliefs and practices. Essential new born care involves immediate care at the time of birth, and essential care during the entire new born period it is needed both in the health facility and at home. Essential new born care is a set of strategic and cost-effective interventions planned to improve the health of new born through the care they receive from birth up to 28days. Essential new-born care includes: Immediate care at birth (delayed cord clamping, thorough drying, assessment of breathing, skin to skin contact, and early initiation of breast feeding),Thermal care, Resuscitation when needed, Support for breast milk feeding, Nurturing care, Infection prevention, Assessment of health problem, Recognition and response to danger signs, Timely and safe referral when needed. Objectives: To assess the knowledge of essential new-born care among nursing students of NEMCARE Institute of Nursing Sciences. To find out association between knowledge of essential newborn care with selected demographic variables. METHODOLOGY: Research methodology is defined as a systematic way to solve a research problem by collecting data, using various techniques, proving a interpretation of the collected data and drawing conclusions about the research data. The present study is aimed at assessing the knowledge regarding essential new born care among nursing students in NEMCARE Institute of Nursing Sciences.
