Demographic and health survey reports (DHS)

The 2018-19 Afghanistan Service Provision Assessment focused on tertiary/specialty and private hospitals. The assessment was conducted between November 2018 and January 2019. The overall goal of the survey was to gather information on the availability, readiness, and quality of health services in national specialty and provincial/regional hospitals, including major private sector hospitals in seven major urban areas (Kabul, Herat, Balkh, Kandahar, Nangarhar, Kunduz, Paktya).

This report examines the trends of sexual and reproductive health behavior over a 9-year period (2008-2017) in the Philippines. The analysis utilizes data from three nationally representative household surveys conducted by The Demographic and Health Surveys Program in 2008, 2013, and 2017.

The primary objective of the 2016-18 PNG DHS is to provide up-to-date estimates of basic demographic and health indicators. Specifically, the 2016-18 PNG DHS collected information on fertility, awareness, and use of family planning methods, breastfeeding practices, nutritional status of children, maternal and child health, childhood immunisation, adult and childhood mortality, women’s empowerment, domestic violence, malaria, awareness and behaviour regarding HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and other health-related issues.

The primary objective of the further analysis of the 2016 NDHS is to provide more in-depth knowledge and insights into key issues that emerged from the survey. This information provides guidance for planning, implementing, refocusing, monitoring, and evaluating health programs in Nepal. The longterm objective of the further analysis is to strengthen the technical capacity of local institutions and individuals for analyzing and using data from complex national population and health surveys to better understand specific issues related to country need.

The 2015 Nepal Health Facility Survey (NHFS) is the first comprehensive assessment of health facilities in Nepal that harmonizes various health facility surveys among the MoHP and health development partners. The survey was designed to collect information from formal-sector health facilities in the country on the delivery of health care services and to examine the preparedness of facilities to provide quality health services in child health, family planning, maternal and newborn care, HIV, STIs, non-communicable diseases, tuberculosis, and malaria.
