Overview of Mother's Work and Family Support in Providing Immunization
This study aims to analyze the description of maternal employment and family support in providing immunization to toddlers. The research method uses a quantitative descriptive approach with a cross-sectional design. The results showed that most mothers did not work (68.0%), while 32.0% were working mothers. However, statistical tests showed no significant relationship between maternal employment status and completeness of immunization (p value = 0.821). On the other hand, family support in providing immunization was classified as very good (96.1%), with support in the form of assistance, schedule reminders, and financial assistance. In conclusion, family support plays a greater role in ensuring completeness of immunization than the mother's employment status. The conclusion of this study confirms that family support is a crucial factor in the success of the immunization program, especially for working mothers who face time constraints.
