Different kinds of health care service are listed. A Private or Public Dispensary, as well as a Doctor/Dentist is a facility with a formally qualified medical professional but with no inpatient facility. A Traditional Healer is a person with medical skills
recognised by the community but may not be formally registered or qualified. A Community health Centre is a health centre funded by government or by the community with formally qualified staff of at least nursing level, and no inpatient capacity. The Provincial or District has an inpatient facility and specialist wards. The Pharmacist/Drugstore/chemist supplies only medications and has no medical personnel. Choose the one used last, and select only ONE response, since subsequent questions will be concerned with this response. If there was no visit in the past month, leave this question blank for that member.
