The SARA 2017 survey's purpose was to provide regular and reliable information on the progress and performance of the health system. The overall objective of the SARA 2017 was to regularly assess the provision of services (availability and operational capacity) and to conduct data verification in public and private facilities. \n\nThe survey covered 89 hospitals (44 public, 33 private, 4 denominational and 8 associative), 4 faith-based and 8 association-based) and 125 health centers (68 public, 39 private, 16 faith-based and 2 associative) distributed in all the districts of the provinces.\n\nThis report covers the following categories of indicators:\n\n1. General service availability and readiness\n\u2022 Basic amenities and comfort elements\n\u2022 Basic equipment\n\u2022 Standard precautions for infection prevention\n\u2022 Diagnostic capacity\n\u2022 Essential medicines\n\n\n2.

The SARA focuses on three main areas: service availability, general service readiness and service-specific readiness.\n\nA basic approach to SARA is to collect data that are comparable both across countries and within countries (i.e. across regions and\/or districts) using a standard core questionnaire developed by WHO in collaboration with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Usually, a country adopts the standard core questionnaire with adaptations to certain elements such as types of facilities, managing authority of facilities, national guidelines for services, staffing categories and national policies for medicines (e.g. for tuberculosis, HIV\/AIDS). The SARA survey requires visits to health facilities with data collection based on key informant interviews and observation of key items. The survey can either be carried out as a sample or a census; the choice between these methodologies will depend on a number of elements including the country's resources, the objectives of the survey and the availability of a master facility list (MFL)."},"method":{"data_collection":{"sampling_procedure":"The survey employed stratified sampling and a census as methodologies for selecting the sample. The census (systematic draw) included all hospitals except specialized hospitals. There were 3 strata where the first strata was at provincial level, the second strata was at the district level and the third strata as the managing authority (public, private, religious and associative).","coll_mode":["Face-to-face [f2f]"],"research_instrument":"The SARA core questionnaires overview is as follows:\nSection 1: Cover page\nSection 2: Staffing\nSection 3: Inpatient and observation beds\nSection 4: Infrastructure\nSection 5: Available services\nSection 6: Diagnostics\nSection 7: Medicines and commodities\nSection 8: Interviewers observations","coll_situation":"Training of survey teams comprising 44 enumerators and 11 supervisors was conducted.
