Abstract

The findings underscore the importance of tailoring childhood vaccination communication strategies to resonate with caregivers' diverse needs and preferences. An ongoing and responsive approach to incorporating caregiver feedback in developing health messaging can ensure that communication strategies support caregiver needs. Healthcare workers and community health volunteers must also be equipped with practical communication tools and training to support caregivers in making informed vaccination decisions for their children.
