Sampling using total sampling with a total sample of 24 people. Data processing starts from editing, coding, tabulating, entry and data processing. Data analysis using chi-square test The results showed that the age factor with a value of p = 0.208 > a = 0.05, the education factor with a value of p = 0.839 > a = 0.05 and the work factor with a value of p = 0.883 > a = 0.05. While the parity factor with a value of p = 0.001 > a = 0.05, knowledge with a value of p = 0.004 > a = 0.05 and the attitude factor with a value of p = 0.007 > a = 0.05.
