Childhood immunizations have served as the cornerstone of preventive health care programs for children in Canada for decades. Despite the benefits of immunizations, child immunization rates in First Nations communities in Northwestern Ontario are low. Limited research has examined immunization uptake in Aboriginal communities. Therefore, health professionals and Aboriginal communities trying to improve immunization rates are challenged by the dearth of knowledge on this topic.

520 $a Childhood immunizations have served as the cornerstone of preventive health care programs for children in Canada for decades. Despite the benefits of immunizations, child immunization rates in First Nations communities in Northwestern Ontario are low. Limited research has examined immunization uptake in Aboriginal communities. Therefore, health professionals and Aboriginal communities trying to improve immunization rates are challenged by the dearth of knowledge on this topic.
520 $a This qualitative exploratory study sought to answer two research questions: What are First Nations Parents' beliefs about childhood immunizations? What factors influence their beliefs and behaviours regarding immunizations? Semi-structured key-informant interviews were conducted with twenty-eight mothers from two First Nations communities in Northwestern Ontario. The Health Belief Model (HBM) was adapted to provide the conceptual framework for this study. The HBM also served as a guide for the interviews. Content analysis was conducted to identify codes and categories in the interview data.
520 $a Data analysis yielded five categories that arose from the two research questions. The first question, parents' beliefs about immunizations, elicited two categories: mothers' perceptions and community beliefs. The second question, influences on immunization beliefs and behaviours, resulted in a further three categories: advice and guidance, experiences, and barriers and drawbacks. These factors had both positive and negative impact on immunization uptake.
520 $a Results of this study provide health professionals with some understanding of the factors influencing immunization uptake in First Nations communities. Implications for nursing practice, education, and research are discussed and recommendations for improving immunization rates in First Nations communities are presented.
