Interviewer instructions
If there is no specific place for handwashing in the household, or permission is not granted to see the place, you will need to ask questions HW4 and HW5. HW4 asks whether soap or detergent (or other locally used cleansing agent) is available in the household, and if so, HW5 is used to ask the respondent whether it is possible to show the soap or detergent. Record your observation if the respondent shows you the soap, detergent, or other cleansing agent. Circle all that apply. If the respondent is unable to show or does not want to show, circle 'Y'. Hand sanitizers are not accepted as a cleansing agent that can be used for handwashing.
