In my study finding reveals that the Posttest level of knowledge score is significant higher than Pretest mean level of knowledge score. After administering home care teaching programme the Posttest score Mean=25.5, SD= 3.94 in comparison with the Pretest score mean = 16.15, SD = 5.17 .The statistical paired “t” Test level for overall level of knowledge score is found 11.57 that is greater than table values 2.00 at p 0.05 Level of significance Hence the hypothesis H1 is accepted. The demographic variables such as age of the parents , types of the family, birth order of the child, education of the parents, area of living, source of information, knowledge regarding homecare management of their child shows statistical no significant association with the pretest level of knowledge. As the tabulated value is more than the calculated value, research hypothesis H2 rejected and statistical hypothesis accepted at less than 0.05 shows that the level of knowledge increased after intervention of Home Care Teaching programme.
