This study develops and evaluates two linked tools: CHIPCAT (Childcare Infection Prevention Capacity Assessment Tool), which generates the Infection Prevention Capacity Index (IPCI) as an institutional capacity score, and HFMD-PREP (HFMD Prevention and Response Enhancement Programme), a structured capacity-building intervention mapped to CHIPCAT domains. Following instrument development and validation, the intervention is evaluated using a stepped-wedge cluster randomised trial (SW-CRT) across 12 licensed childcare centres in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. All centres receive HFMD-PREP by the end of the study; only the timing of crossover differs by randomised sequence. The primary outcome is the change in IPCI. Secondary outcomes are staff and parent knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) scores. HFMD incidence is analysed as an exploratory secondary disease outcome. This study is also registered with the Malaysian National Medical Research Register (NMRR ID RSCH ID-26-05258-LQ3), with parallel ethics submission to the Ministry of Health Malaysia Medical Research Ethics Committee (MOH MREC).",[93,94],"Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease","Infection Control",[96,97,98,61],"HFMD","childcare centres","stepped-wedge cluster randomised trial","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-10-09",{"date":102,"type":103},"2026-10-13","ACTUAL",{"date":105,"type":87},"2026-10",{"date":107,"type":87},"2028-06",{"name":73,"class":6},1]
