Outside Household Monitoring Form

Length: A3
Year: 2016
Organization: CGPP/Nigeria
Country: Nigeria
Language: English

This monitoring form is administered by personnel independent of the program during immunization campaigns. Settlements are selected randomly for a survey to determine the percentage of missed children by sampling children under 5 years for evidence of vaccination. Children are selected outside the selected settlements and categorized as 0 – 23 months and 24 – 59 months. A repeat immunization campaign specific to that area (known as a mop-up) is recommended if more than 10% of sampled children are missed. The mop-up is conducted on the fifth day of the campaign by deploying immunization teams to revisit the homes of missed children.
