Survey Management and Implementation:

  • Develop SENS survey Methodology.

  • Recruitment and capacity building of Survey team.
  • Supervision of the survey data collection: Taking necessary actions to enhance the accuracy of data collected and to ensure the security of team members:
  • Visiting teams in the field and making sure that before leaving the field, each team leader reviews all questionnaires and survey forms to ensure that no pieces of data have been left out; making sure that the teams return to visit the absent people in the selected household at least twice before leaving the survey area.
  • It is particularly important to double check all cases of oedema, as there are often no cases of oedema seen during the training and some team members may therefore be prone to mistaking a fat child for one with oedema (particularly with younger children). The Coordinator should note teams that report a lot of oedema, confirm cases, and visit all of these children to verify their status.
  • Ensuring that households are selected properly; that the anthropometric and anaemia equipment are checked daily; that the anthropometric equipment is calibrated each morning during the survey, and that measurements are taken and recorded accurately.
  • Deciding on how to overcome the problems encountered during the survey. Each problem encountered and decision made must be promptly recorded and included in the final report, if this has caused a change in the planned methodology.
  • Finalize all questionnaires into the smartphones and transfer anthropometric data into ENA for SMART (if MDC methods) on a daily basis. Organizing data entry into ENA for SMART and Epi Info software (if paper-based survey).

  • Organize an evening or morning “wrap up” session with each team to discuss any problems that have arisen during the day.
  • Ensuring that the teams have enough time to take appropriate resting periods and has refreshments with them.
