Table 4.31 presents data on the extent of recognition of satellite clinics <strong>and</strong> their coverage. Just overhalf of ever-married women interviewed said that there was a satellite clinic in their community. Of thosereporting a clinic, about half said that they had visited the clinic at some time. Almost all of these women(87 percent) were aware that the clinic provided immunization services for children, however, only 11 percentsaid that the clinic provided family planning methods <strong>and</strong> less than 20 percent said it provided child growthmonitoring. It is possible that, instead of reporting all the services that the satellite clinic provided, thewomen mistakenly reported only the service for which they attended the clinic.Younger women <strong>and</strong> older women are less likely than women in the middle age groups to know of asatellite clinic in the community <strong>and</strong>, even among those who did, they are less likely to have visited thefacility. Satellite clinics are more common in rural than urban areas, with twice as many rural womenreporting a clinic nearby (57 vs. 27 percent). Clinics are more common in Khulna Division <strong>and</strong> less commonin Dbaka Division; however, women in all divisions are about equally likely to visit a clinic if they knowabout one. There is no clear pattern by education.Table 4.31 Satellite clinicsPercentage of ever-married women who reported a satellite clinic in their community in the last three months, the percentagewho visited a clinic) <strong>and</strong> the percentage who reported various types of services provided at the clinic, by selectedbackground characteristics, <strong>Bangladesh</strong> <strong>1993</strong>-94Of those reportinga clinic:Of those who visited a clinic,percent reporting various services:PercentreportingPercenta chnic Number who Number Family Don't NumberBackground in corn- of visited of planning Immuni- Child know/ ofcharacteristic munity women clinic women methods zation growth Other Missing womenAge10-14 36.9 145 21.7 54 * * * * * 1215-19 52.2 1271 45.0 663 9.0 88.0 14.9 6.8 0.2 29920-24 55.9 2033 61.5 1136 9.7 87.5 19.6 4.6 0.2 69925-29 55.7 2012 58.4 1121 12.1 86.9 19.0 8.5 0.3 65430-34 55.2 1456 51.4 804 12.4 87.3 18.0 5.8 0.6 41335-39 54.4 1197 39.5 651 14.9 83.8 14.8 8.7 0.4 25740-44 49.9 871 32.0 435 11.3 82.6 13.6 10.6 0.7 13945-49 46.8 655 20.9 307 12.6 81.1 26.3 7,6 0.0 64ResidenceUrban 26.5 1108 47.8 294 12.7 84.1 19.3 6.8 0.4 140Rural 57.2 8532 49.1 4880 11.3 86.7 17.9 6.9 0.3 2397DivisionBarisal 54.9 606 56.5 333 10.9 88.8 26.6 5.8 0.3 188Chittagong 52.9 2527 45.4 1337 8.1 93.0 18.7 4.2 0.2 607Dhaka 44.2 2963 44.6 1310 15.6 82.8 13.0 7.1 0.3 584Khulna 68.4 1217 56.1 832 15.3 82.0 18.5 8.8 0.2 467Rajshahi 58.3 2326 51.0 I356 8.4 86.4 18.7 8.0 0.6 692EducationNo education 53.1 5598 47.8 2973 11.3 86.3 18.0 7.0 0.2 1422Primary complete 59.0 1681 52.9 992 11.3 84.4 19.4 5.6 0.5 525Primary incomplete 58.3 921 51.9 537 9.6 86.5 I6.9 7.3 0.8 279Secondary/Higher 46.2 1439 46.7 665 13.9 91.4 16.0 7.9 0.2 311Total 53.6 9640 49.1 5167 11.4 86.5 17.9 6.8 0.3 2537• Fewer than 25 unweighted women70
