Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) stays can be long, and parents can become an integral part of the team for their infants by being involved in family integrated care (FICare). The purpose of this review was to answer the question, how does FICare in the NICU influence neonatal outcomes and parental confidence in neonatal care upon discharge? This integrative review followed the 5 stages outlined by Whittemore and Knafl. The 4 themes identified were neonatal outcomes, parental confidence, communication, and barriers to FICare. The findings provide insight into how FICare influences neonatal outcomes and parental confidence.
