Overview

Antenatal/Postnatal Care Research Collective (ARC) project is conducting a study to explore the effect of Group Antenatal Care on Women’s Place of Childbirth in Nasarawa State, Nigeria. The study is funded by Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

The primary objective of the study is to determine where G-ANC participants (i.e., women who attended at least one meeting) gave birth, disaggregated by place of childbirth (e.g. the same health facility where they attended G-ANC, another facility, home) and survey method (e.g., phone, in-person). Explorative objectives include;

To identify factors associated with each place of childbirth (e.g., the same health facility where they attended G-ANC, another facility, home), stratified by survey method (e.g., phone, in-person)

To explore potential associations between greater intervention exposure (i.e., number of attended sessions) and childbirth in the same G-ANC facility, stratified by survey method (e.g., phone, in-person)

ARC009 study will engage 3 research coordinators to supervise 28 research assistants conducting phone and in person surveys among G-ANC participants who can be reached by phone to find out where they gave birth and the reasons they chose that place. In addition, in-person surveys will be conducted among eligible G-ANC participants who were not reached by phone and who can be traced at home.

Based on the scope of the task, the research coordinators will be assigned to supervise research assistants in the three senatorial zones.

The overall purpose of this activity is to conduct phone survey, in-person surveys and indepth interview to eligible G-ANC clients as needed for the ARC 009 study.

The research coordinator will oversee a team of research assistants conducting surveys with respondents in person. The Research Coordinators will ensure that the Research Assistants adhere to the study protocol, and SOPs, conduct interviews in a professional and ethical manner, and meet project deadlines. The Research Coordinators will also be responsible for monitoring data quality, resolving issues that arise during data collection, and maintaining accurate records.
