Abstract

Background: Immunization coverage in Pidie Aceh Still has not met the targets. Based on data from the Pidie Health District Office, it is known that the coverage of complete basic immunization for toddlers has only reached 84,84%. The Regional Government and related agencies are still working on various programs to achieve this. Several factors affect the coverage of basic immunization in an area, such as the low role of cadres and the lack of family support for immunization. An assessment must be conducted to determine good policies for future health programs.Objective: The research aims to determine the factors that cover the basic immunization program for toddlers in Kembang Tanjong, Pidie-Aceh.

This research was carried out from 03 to 11 December 2020 in the Kembang Tanjong, Pidie, Aceh. Data were collected through interviews using a questionnaire.
