Background: Low immunization coverage and exclusive breastfeeding coverage are problems in various regions. This program is caused by a lack of maternal knowledge and family support. This problem increases the risk of infection, growth disorders, and impacts the health status of infants. Therefore, the IMASI MOVEMENT (Immunization and Exclusive Breastfeeding Movement) is needed to increase community knowledge and participation regarding infant and toddler health. Method: The methods used include interactive counseling, demonstrations of breastfeeding techniques according to the pink book (KIA), distribution of leaflets, and evaluation through pre-tests and post-tests. Evaluation was carried out on aspects of structure, process, results, and impact of the activity. Results: The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' knowledge scores by ?50–60% after education. Participant attendance reached ?85% of the target, and there was an increase in participation in integrated health post activities compared to the previous month. Discussion: The increase in knowledge scores in the post-test results compared to the pre-test indicates that the educational intervention is effective in increasing mothers' understanding of the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding and the importance of immunization. These findings indicate that community-based health education is an effective strategy to improve maternal health literacy and has the potential to increase the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding and complete basic immunization. Conclusion: This program has proven effective in increasing awareness and health behavior of mothers and toddlers as an effort to prevent stunting and infectious diseases.

Immunization is a preventive measure used to protect against Tuberculosis, Diphtheria, Pertussis, Polio, Hepatitis B, and Measles. Immunization administration must be continuous, comprehensive, and conducted according to standards to provide effective health protection. The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between paternal support and the immunization status of children aged 0 to 1 year in the Tamban Baru Community hEalth Center area, Kapuas Regency. This study used a cross-sectional correlation design. The independent variable was paternal support, and the dependent variable was immunization status. The sample was selected using total sampling technique, consisting of 50 respondents. Data collection was performed using a questionnaire. The results showed a significant correlation between paternal support and the immunization status of children aged 0 to 1 year, indicated by p = 0.000017 < 0.005; thus, the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H1) accepted. This means that there is a correlation between paternal support and the immunization status of children aged 0 to 1 year. It is recommended that that cross-sector collaboration and Community Health Center authorities enhance efforts so that every immunization officer provides health education, such as counseling about immunization, and that family involvement in spreading immunization programs is increased to achieve targeted coverage through cooperation with health professionals.

The coverage of Complete Basic Immunization (Imunisasi Dasar Lengkap or IDL) in Maharani Village remains low at 38.8%, falling short of the national target of 95%. This condition increases the health risk of toddlers contracting Vaccine-Preventable Diseases (PD3I). This study aimed to determine the relationship between mothers' knowledge and husbands' support regarding the completeness of basic immunization for toddlers in Maharani Village, within the working area of Rumbai Bukit Public Health Center. This research employed a quantitative analytic method with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study comprised all mothers with toddlers in the area, with a sample of 73 respondents selected using the purposive sampling technique. Data collection was conducted using validated questionnaires and observation of Maternal and Child Health (KIA) books, followed by univariate and bivariate analysis using the Chi-square statistical test. The results indicated that the majority of toddlers had incomplete immunization status (61.6%), mothers had a low level of knowledge (61.6%), and respondents did not receive support from their husbands (58.9%). Statistical test results confirmed a very significant relationship between mothers' knowledge (p-value = 0.000) and husbands' support (p-value = 0.000) with the completeness of basic immunization. The conclusion confirms that knowledge and husband's support are the main determinant factors. It is suggested that Rumbai Bukit Public Health Center implement a more inclusive health promotion strategy by involving the active role of husbands in monitoring child health.

The coverage of complete basic immunization (CBI) in Indonesia has experienced a significant decline, dropping from 93.7% in 2019 to 84.5% in 2021. Aceh Province was recorded as one of the lowest regions nationwide, achieving only 39.4% and ranking among the bottom three provinces. Low public awareness and knowledge, particularly in rural areas, have become the main factors contributing to the low participation in immunization programs. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of door-to-door education in improving the knowledge and awareness of mothers with toddlers and its impact on immunization participation in Mukhan Village, Indrajaya Subdistrict, Aceh Jaya District. The research applied a quasi-experimental method with a pre-test design and no control group, involving 25 mothers of toddlers who were directly visited through a one-month door-to-door program. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and by recording the immunization status of the toddlers. The findings revealed that before the intervention, only 36% of toddlers had received complete basic immunization, while 64% had incomplete immunization. After the educational intervention, there was a positive shift in attitudes among several mothers who had previously doubted or refused immunization, including one mother who later agreed to participate in catch-up immunization. Door-to-door education proved effective in enhancing knowledge and awareness, as it enabled direct communication that clarified myths and addressed concerns about immunization. Although overall immunization coverage remains low, the observed positive change in attitudes highlights the potential for increased participation through continuous efforts, multi-stakeholder collaboration, and the active involvement of health cadres and local community leaders.

The high mortality and morbidity rates of infants in Indonesia remain a serious public health problem. One of the main causes of this condition is the emergence of infectious diseases that can actually be prevented through basic immunization. Diseases such as diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, tuberculosis, poliomyelitis, measles, and hepatitis B are types of diseases that can be prevented by immunization, yet many children still have not received complete immunizations. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between maternal knowledge levels and the completeness of basic immunization status of children aged 12–24 months in RW 13 Kp. Sapan, Sumbersari Village. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design and was conducted in August 2024. A total of 39 mothers with children aged 12–24 months became the study respondents through a total sampling technique. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire, and the data obtained were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The results showed that the majority of mothers had a sufficient level of knowledge, namely 21 mothers (53.8%). In addition, the majority of toddlers, 28 children (71.85%), had received complete basic immunizations. The results of statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between maternal knowledge and the completeness of children's basic immunizations with a p value of 0.006 (p < 0.05). This indicates that the higher the mother's knowledge regarding the importance of immunization, the greater the likelihood of the child receiving complete basic immunizations. Therefore, it is important for mothers to continue to increase their knowledge about immunizations through various sources of information such as books, counseling, or consultations with health workers, so that efforts to prevent infectious diseases in children can be optimally achieved.

Factors Associated with Completeness of Basic Immunization for Infants at Ulee Kareng Health Center. Basic immunization is a program carried out to protect a person's body from diseases that can be prevented by immunization (PD3I) caused by viruses or bacteria, including tuberculosis, polio, diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B, flu, measles and rubella. Based on data from the Directorate General of Disease Prevention and Management, the Indonesian Ministry of Health in 2018, ranks of Aceh Province are the lowest in basic immunization coverage, which is 70%. This study aims to determine the factors associated with completeness of immunization in infants with quantitative analytical methods with a cross sectional design approach (Cut Latitude). The study was conducted in March-July 2021 and obtained as many as 62 samples with the sampling method by accidental sampling. The results of this study indicate that there is a relationship between mother's knowledge and completeness of infant basic immunization with a p-value of 0.000, there is a relationship between mother's education and completeness of infant basic immunization with p-value of 0.000001, there is a relationship between mother's employment status and completeness of infant basic immunization p-value 0.003, and there is a relationship between family support and completeness of basic infant immunization with a p-value of 0.000. The distance to the place of immunization service does not have a relationship with the completeness of infant immunization with a p-value of 0.054. The efforts of the puskesmas in achieving immunization completeness were scored well by conducting an assessment of planning, implementation and assessment activities using a questionnaire containing 5 questions on planning, 5 questions on implementation and 5 questions on assessment. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the level of knowledge, education, employment status, and family support has a relationship with the status of completeness of infant immunization. The distance to the place of immunization service does not have a relationship with the infant's immunization status. The researcher's suggestion is to do research with a larger sample and add various other variables that have a relationship with the infant's immunization status.
