Description
DELZM3_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a community/village health worker gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Zambia.
DELZM3_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELZM3_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELZM3_02, DELZM3_03, DELZM3_04, DELZM3_05, and DELZM3_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELZM3_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
