Description
FPNONGA5 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a public maternal and child health center as a source of family planning. This response category is country-specific to Gabon.
Comparability
FPNONGA5 has no comparability problems.
FPNONGA5 is combined with FPNONGA11 (hospital/health center hut) in FPNONPUBHC (all public health centers) for the 2012 Gabon survey.
IPUMS DHS users interested in using FPNONGA5 are encouraged to review FPNONPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
Comparability - Standard DHS
