Interviewer instructions
This set of questions (Q6562-6564) is only asked if the youngest child in the household under age 5 was reported to have ever been ill, and refers to the last period of illness. The interviewer should record the sources where the child first received care during the last period of illness, regardless of whether the source was from a health facility or not. If the source was a facility, probe whether it belonged to the public sector (run by the government including military) or private sector (including those run by nongovernmental organizations or religious institutionsIf the respondent is unsure of where the child received care, probe without implying that the child should have been taken elsewhere.
