Description

Definition

For women who gave birth in the last five years, ANCAREAO2_01 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported that a midwife gave antenatal care (for the last birth). This response category is country-specific to Angola.

Some samples in the "ANCARE" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

ANCAREAO2_01 is combined with ANCAREAO1_01 (nurse) for the 2015 Angola sample to make the standard variable ANCARENURM_01 (nurse/midwife). IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ANCAREAO2_01 are encouraged to review ANCARENURM_01 for this more comprehensive response category.
