Definition
HCMSN1 indicates whether the woman reported a public health center as a source for male condoms. This response category is country-specific to Senegal.
Some samples in the "HCM" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
HCMSN1 is combined with HCMSN2 (public health post) in HCMPUBHC (all public health centers and health posts) for the 1997, 2005, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2015, and 2016 Senegal samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using HCMSN1 are encouraged to review HCMPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
