From August
2011 to December 2011, our five (5) health agents at Pernier have administered
a need-assessment survey to the population. The survey has 44 questions,
covering resources on health education and facilities (clinics, health centers,
and hospitals); prevalence of chronic diseases, such as Hypertension and Diabetes;
infectious diseases, such as Malaria, Tuberculosis, Cholera, STDs, and HIV/AIDs;
and patient satisfaction with the Repheka Clinic at Pernier.
A total of 877 questionnaires were administered. Most participants were female (77%), between 18 and 49 years of age (71%), have primary and secondary education (80%), and are married or in cohabitation (69%). In the coming weeks, more results will be posted. The descriptive results are as follows in the table below:
