Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last 5 years and who received antenatal care during their most recent pregnancy, ANCLS1_01 indicates whether they received care from a CHAL [Christian Health Association of Lesotho] hospital. This response category is country-specific to Lesotho.

Some samples in the "ANC" 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.

ANCLS1_01 is combined with ANCLS2_01 (CHAL health center) and ANCLS3_01 (CHAL health post) in ANCPRIVMIS_01 (all faith-based facilities) for the 2014 Lesotho sample. ANCLS1_01 is combined with ANCLS2_01 in ANCPRIVMIS_01 for the 2004 and 2009 Lesotho samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ANCLS1_01 are encouraged to review ANCPRIVMIS_01 for a more comprehensive response category.
