you know that in some societies, mothers are often seen as a key figure
in assuring children’s health and nutrition?

In some places, one of the causes of low vaccination uptake is due to


fathers refusing to vaccinate their children for various reasons. A study
showed 50% of respondents make the decision to vaccinate their
children after consulting with their spouses, and only 27% decide
themselves. Being a good father, what role can you play to ensure timely
vaccination for your child?

Your engagement in immunization will boost the family's confidence to


fulfill a child’s right to be healthy and protect your community from
vaccine-preventable diseases.  If you are a father, here are 5 ways for
you to support child immunization:
1. Stay informed
It is never too late to contact your health workers and talk to them to get
reliable information on your child immunization. You can read up-to-date
material from the Ministry of Health’s, WHO’s and UNICEF’s websites.

Note that your baby will need to receive the Hepatitis B vaccine first as
early as the first 24 hours after birth to provide optimal protection. This
means the conversation on child’s immunization could start from
pregnancy or even before planning to have a baby.
2. Know the schedule
Children’s immunization calendar is reproduced below and can also be
easily accessed in the MCH book (buku KIA). Use a reminder system that
works for you and your spouse to ensure your child gets timely
vaccinated. In case you realize that you are behind schedule, do not
panic, you can contact the nearest Puskesmas  or  Posyandu or clinic and
plan the catch-up vaccination for your child.
