Factors Influencing Child Welfare Clinic Attendance in a Periurban Community: A Descriptive Cross-Sectional Study
Abstract
Conclusion: We identified various factors (sociodemographic and knowledge/perception) influencing CWC attendance. Healthcare providers must institute interventions targeting parents having lower education status and having children older than 11 months for continued CWC attendance even after the completion of routine immunizations. This may include continued home visits to provide CWC care to children less than 5 years old.
