Description

Definition
For young children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRSN3 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child was reported to have received treatment at a community health center for this illness. This response category is country-specific to Senegal.

Some samples in the "FEVTR" 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.

FEVTRSN3 is combined with FEVTRSN2 (government health center) in FEVTRPUBHC (all public health centers) for the 2014, 2015, and 2016 Senegal samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRSN3 are encouraged to review FEVTRPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
