Hi Jeremy, The module seems pretty simple so really just a quick "how-to" guide would be helpful.
Also, if I can get some advice.... We are implementing this system in 1 village to be used to monitor maternal and newborn care. For the entire village, I have a list of all the households, their codes, and the women who belong to them. For the total number of women in the village, about half of them will at some point be entered into the system (either for ANC or child health). However, at no point will the male household heads be entered into the OMRS system. So, I can either enter enroll the men as patients (just registration), and then assign them as the house head, or I can assign one of the wives as the household head (I don't know which woman in the house is the sr. wife, so I would have to arbitrarily assign it to one of the women). Can anyone give a reason why I one of these options would be better than the other? Obviously it would take less time for me to just assign a woman as house head, but they are more likely to "leave" a house vs. the male. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
