Codes and Frequencies
Description
For women who have received an injection from a health worker in recent months, INJSOURCE (V479) indicates the place the woman went to get the injection.
Comparability
Along with universe differences, the response categories for INJSOURCE (V479) vary across samples.
The harmonized codes for INJSOURCE reflect, in the first digit, the major categories in the original DHS variable, with 100 indicating homes, 200 indicating public medical facilities and workers, 300 indicating private medical facilities and workers, 400 indicating non-governmental organizations, and 500 indicating traditional health facilities and practitioners. The second and third digits of INJSOURCE's codes distinguish between specific locations and provide detail present in only some samples.
