Sampling was done by purposive sampling technique using a questionnaire as a research instrument. Results; that mothers who comply with tetanus toxoid immunization are 74.6% while those who are not compliant are 25.4%. The results showed that there was a relationship between access (p = 0.000), attitude (p = 0.000), husband's support (p = 0.000), and the role of health workers (p = 0.016) with tetanus toxoid immunization compliance.
