Interviewer instructions

Disability

Question C1

178. Ask,
'Does any person in this household have any disability or health problem that is long term?'

By long term we mean any condition or illness which has lasted for 6 months or more.

Exercise patience here, disability is very hard to assess outside clinical tests. Probe gently but persistently. People are either unwilling to admit that family members have disability or may forget them altogether.

If the answer is 'Yes" circle the appropriate person(s) number(s). For larger households write person number above an unused person number eg. P12 instead of unused 'P10'.
