Change in maternal and newborn health care. Data from two cross-sectional surveys in Gombe State, North-East Nigeria, 2012 and 2015
This collection comprises the survey instruments and datasets for the household, health facility and frontline worker quantitative surveys which were conducted by the IDEAS project in Gombe State, North-East Nigeria in 2012 and 2015. Data were collected with the primary aims of demonstrating whether 1) interactions between families and frontline health workers had been enhanced between 2012 and 2015 by increasing in number, improving in quality and becoming more equitable; and 2) whether the coverage of life-saving interventions and behaviours has increased as a result of maternal and newborn health innovations.
Alternative Title
Interactions between families and frontline workers – their frequency, quality, and equity – and coverage of interventions for mothers and newborns

| Description of data capture | A sample of 40 villages in Gombe State were surveyed in 2012. Villages were sampled from each of the Local Government Areas in the State, with the exception of Gombe town. 50 households were visited in each village and women of child-bearing age were interviewed about any births during the previous 24 months. These data were linked to interviews with frontline health workers and with staff at primary or community health facilities which were providing maternal and newborn health services to those households. Similar surveys were conducted in 2015 - in preparation for future evaluation work in the State the sample of villages was increased from 40 to 80, and 75 households were visited in each village. |
