According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, there are five broad layers of need, starting with basic human physiological needs such as food and water.According to this theory, these basic needs must be met first.After clients' needs for food and water have been satisfied, they might be open to vaccinations.Education is always a good idea, but according to Maslow, basic human needs come first.Making vaccinations mandatory might drive some of the homeless clients away.Basic physiological needs should be met first; offering vaccinations before meeting the need for sleep and rest might not result in a high level of acceptance.
