Abstract: Family Support, Knowledge, and Attitudes Reduce Elderly Anxiety in the Implementation of COVID-19 Vaccination: Cross-Sectional Study
Background: Background: Vaccination against COVID-19 is one of the government's efforts to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Meanwhile, the side effects of COVID-19 vaccination are one of the causes of anxiety in the elderly. The impact of anxiety can influence the elderly to make a decision not to vaccinate against COVID-19. It is important to examine possible risk factors for anxiety in the elderly given the COVID-19 vaccination. Purpose: This study aims to examine several risk factors for anxiety in the elderly, including family support, knowledge, and attitudes in carrying out the COVID-19 vaccination in the Working Area of the Perumnas Health Center, Kadia District. The results of the study are expected to provide an alternative contribution to the development of interventions for the elderly who are anxious about facing COVID-19 vaccination based on risk factors. Methods: This research is a quantitative study using a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used proportional random sampling with a total sample of 57 elderly respondents aged 64-75 years. Research data were analyzed using univariate or bivariate. Results: The study found that 82.5% of the elderly experienced anxiety about being given the COVID-19 vaccination. Knowledge, attitude, and family support risk factors have a significant relationship with the anxiety of the elderly doing the COVID-19 vaccination (p-value > 0.05). Conclusion: The elderly's anxiety about the COVID-19 vaccination is influenced by several factors, including knowledge, family support, and the attitude of the elderly toward the COVID-19 vaccination. So that the elderly are not worried, they should not be influenced by negative issues regarding COVID-19 vaccination and trust information from the government about COVID-19 vaccination information.
