Questions and instructions
At this time,do you know of a place where can you go to get such a test to see if you have the AIDS virus?
This question aims to obtain information about the level of "unmet need" for HIV-testing.
They first ask about experience of HIV testing. Voluntary testing and counselling are now
encouraged, in the belief that if a person knows his or her status, he or she is more likely to
adopt behaviours to prevent contracting the virus or (if positive) transmitting it. Many of
those who get tested do not return to learn the result of the test, but the proportion of those
who return should rise as the quality of pre-test counselling improves. It is important to
obtain an estimate of the number of those tested who return to learn the result, in order to
monitor this proxy indicator of the quality of available counselling and the level of demand
for such services.
Check whether
she is the mother or primary caretaker of any children that live with them and are under the
age of 5 years by checking the Household Questionnaire, column HL7, for the woman's line
number. If so, start interviewing her with the Questionnaire for Children under Five for
those children.
If this woman is not the mother or primary caretaker of any children under 5 in the
household, check if there is another eligible woman residing in the same household. If so,
go on to administer the Questionnaire for Individual Women to the next eligible woman.
Continue until you have completed questionnaires for all eligible women and children in the
household.
