Background: Effective healthcare depends on person-centred care (PCC), encompassing patient needs and capacities. This approach is especially critical for improving maternal and new-born health, a challenge in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). To facilitate the PCC integration, the Swedish “Mutual Meetings” online course was developed, based on the ethical routines- partnership, patient narrative, and documentation. This study presents the process of translating the course into French, its validation, and cultural adaptation within DRC’s maternal and new-born healthcare context. Method: The PCC course was translated into French and tested in a workshop with 31 healthcare providers, all involved in maternal and new-born healthcare in the eastern DRC. The participants and the two course facilitators evaluated the PCC course in group interviews (n=4) and individual interviews (n=2). The interview texts were analysed deductively using a process evaluation framework with the key components fidelity, dose, reach, acceptability, and adaptation. Results: The course content matched and even exceeded the participants’ expectations. Its pedagogic structure, using a reflective approach, was found to be innovative and it mediated a sense of comfort. It also enabled the participants to use a person-centred approach with each other. The course was found to be applicable in both teaching and clinical care, although with some suggested contextual modifications. Conclusion: The French version of the PCC course “Mutual Meetings” was feasible, acceptable, and well received by the participants, who identified a need of minor revisions. The findings can serve as a model for future validation studies. The study demonstrates the importance of contextual adaptation of complex interventions in new settings, such as a course, while keeping the core elements in place.
