Primary health care baseline survey : Kenema District

"The usual methodology; cluster sampling; was used for the collection of data in the field. 30 urban clusters were selected from Kenema Town; Tongofield (Tokoombu; Kpandebu; and Lowoma); rural clusters were spread over all the sixteen chiefdoms (i.e. including the rural areas of chiefdoms from which urban clusters were selected).

Thus a total of 600 urban and 600 rural households were surveyed. These households had 3;980 and 4;371 persons in the urban and rural clusters respectively"
