NIPS was used for data collection. Data collection method was interview & observation method; data analysis was done with the help of descriptive and inferential statistics. Result: The mean pain scores of neonates vaccinated in the facilitated tucking position (2.53±1.042) were significantly statistically lower than the scores of neonates vaccinated in the routine position (5.80±0.925) (p<0.05). Conclusion: The pain perceptions of neonates held in the facilitated tucking position during Hepatitis B vaccination were lower.
