<![CDATA[Immunization is an effective disease prevention effort for infants, including the Pentavalent (Penta Bio) vaccine and Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) 1 which are part of the national immunization program. Despite the increase in national immunization coverage, some children in remote areas such as Haruai District, Tabalong Regency, are still at risk of getting immunizations late due to low parental compliance, which is suspected to be influenced by family support. This study aims to analyze the influence of family support on parental compliance in the timely implementation of Penta Bio and PCV 1 immunizations at Haruai Health Centers. The study design used a cross-sectional quantitative approach with a total sampling technique of 25 respondents of infant parents, through questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability, then analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that 80% of respondents had good family support and were classified as compliant with the immunization schedule, while all respondents with less support were recorded as non-compliant. The statistical test obtained a p-value of 0.000 for both types of vaccines, which proves the existence of a meaningful relationship between family support and timely adherence. It was concluded that family support is the main determining factor for compliance with Penta Bio and PCV 1 immunizations. It is recommended that health workers strengthen family-based education to reduce the rate of non-compliance in areas with limited access to health services.]]>
