Description

Definition
HCFLS1 indicates whether the woman reported a CHAL [Christian Health Association of Lesotho] hospital as a source for female condoms. This response category is country-specific to Lesotho.

Some samples in the "HCF" 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.

HCFLS1 is combined with HCFLS2 (CHAL health center) and HCFLS3 (CHAL health post) in HCFPRIVMIS (all faith-based health facilities) for the 2014 Lesotho sample. Additionally, HCFLS1 is combined with HCFLS2 in HCFPRIVMIS for the 2004 and 2009 Lesotho samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using HCFLS1 are encouraged to review HCFPRIVMIS for a more comprehensive response category.
