Notes
The type of person who gave prenatal care to the respondent prior to the birth. The coding is standardized, but in many surveys no differentiation is made between trained nurses and trained midwives. In these cases code 2 is used for trained nurse/midwife. In other surveys the question asks where the respondent received prenatal care, in which case this variable is blank and a country specific variable is used for place where treatment was given.
