RURAL | Temporal access: Limited hours of operation of influenza immunization clinic | “I know we had one clinic in [Community A] but it was only one night and not everybody could make it out for that time…” (FG 13 rural) |
Physical Access: Having to drive to a different town to access an influenza vaccination clinic | “I still have to travel to the next town…which is like 25 minutes away.” (FG 11 rural) | |
Physical Access: Lack of stability in influenza immunization clinic locations | “…The flu shot was just at a hotel, they set up a walk-in thing. The next year it was at the civic center, or the health unit. It is all over the place.” (FG 17 rural) | |
URBAN | Physical Access: Transportation barriers | “…parents not driving and clinics not being close to them…” (FG 5 urban) |
“… with us we were driving in rush hour … and I hate that.” (FG 6 urban) |
