Household surveys are important for both building relationships with displaced persons and also gathering critical data for infectious disease control. The Rapid Health Assessment for Refugees: Preliminary Report app will help health workers compile data after conducting household surveys from displaced persons. The app user will indicate the methods used for conducting the survey include area sampling or cluster sampling within the community. The results are listed by indicators with both observed and theoretical findings including household demographics, indications of child malnutrition, vaccination coverage, and retrospective mortality and distribution of causes of death. With the app, a health worker can recommend vital needs in terms of diet and caloric intake, shelter and non-food items that would all contribute to persistent medical conditions and the transmission of infectious disease among displaced persons.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
