Interviewer instructions
When asking this question, be sure to use the name of the child you are referring to, so that there is no confusion.
Probe for the type of person who assisted with the delivery.

Circle the codes corresponding to all persons assisting at the delivery. Use the below codes.
'A' - Doctor
'B' - Nurse/midwife
'C' - Feldshers
'F' - Traditional birth attendant
'G' - Community health worker
'H' - Relative/friend
'X' - Other person
If you are unsure where to code a person mentioned, write it in the space provided 'Other' and circle 'X'.
